Brad Newman…Brad the Dad

As some of you may know, our brother and friend, Brad Newman experienced a major stroke on June 17th. He is being very well taken care of and is receiving acute care in Phoenix. In true, Brad the Dad style, he is working hard on his recovery. This is going to be a very, very long haul.

If you know Brad, then you have probably been helped by Brad. This is what Brad does.

Had a bad day? There would be grub hub sitting on your porch when you got home.

Need a wedding singer? Brad would be there. Need a fun river guide to take you down the Grand Canyon? Brad would be there.  Ran out of gas?  Brad would be there. Need someone to talk to when you have some 'windshield time'? Brad would be there.

The list can endlessly go on and on, but needless to say, Brad would always be there. Now it’s our turn to be there for Brad. As the executive director of YEI, Yavapai Exceptional Industries, for over 45 years, he has selflessly dedicated his life to helping people with disabilities find gainful employment and a sense of personal pride as they achieve their dreams.  

He helps, he gives, he loves. He makes sure that everyone around him has what they need, no matter who they are or how long he has known them.  This describes Brad to his core, whether at work, at play, making music or being with his family. He’s always there. He’s Brad the Dad.

This account is not earmarked for anything specific just yet. However, this will be a long process and we want to make sure Brad has what he needs. 

The outpouring of love and well wishes and prayers has been amazing! We are so grateful for all of you.

Thank you!
