Title: Re: Hamburger Brad Williams, 1984-2009 Post by: glenn on January 01, 2010, 05:27:46 am Brad was a great kid. He was diagnosed a few months after the 2006 VW Classic. He originally had testicular cancer and then lost a kidney. He flew out to Long Island last October and we went to see his beloved LA Kings play the Islanders... and they won. He felt great and looked good and I was trying to convince him to come back for the Litchfield show in June. In the middle of December he had a turn for the worse and his liver and remaining kidney were shutting down. A bunch of friend busted him out of the hospital and took him home. He was surrounded by friends until he passed on Christmas night.
Viewing and Services for Brad are: Jan 2 2010, Viewing will be at 11:00am Service will be at 12:00 Dress is casual its how Brad wanted it, no suits or ties Mountain View Mortuary 2400 Fair Oaks Ave Altadena, CA 91001-5051 (626) 794-7133 A Payapl account has been setup to help his family pay off his medical bills: Hamburgerbrad@thesamba.com Brad, among other things, was a moderator for the Samba's Off-Road forum and his userid was HamburgerBrad .

I didn´t know him or heard of him before. But I red his topic on samba. He seemed to touch and inspire a lot of people. ...another sad story...another person who died way too young. Positive thoughts going out to his family and friends! |
