Brad was an amazing and inspirational student, as he moved onto his carrier as an artist we became friends. was so happy when he returned to Sheridan college to teach. Brad very quickly became a beloved and outstanding teacher. He never failed to have a smile on his face every time we stoped to chat. always had great ideas to share. Brad was an outstanding person, his presents in a room was felt by everyone. My heat is broken and there is a little less light in this world with him not being here. I will always remember him in the best possible way. As he ones wrote, we will meet again in a better place.

My deepest condolences to all of Brad's family, and his loved ones. I taught Brad when he studied in the Animation Program at Sheridan. He always brought a keen, mature, enthusiastic, and positive energy to the classroom. He stood out for this and I always enjoyed having him in my classes. Years later, when Brad became a co-worker and fellow teacher, I was very happy. Brad brought an enthusiasm and passion to teacher that was inspiring and exciting, and I know that to his students, along with much learning. I'll deeply miss Brad, but I'm very glad to have known him.
