It is with a broken heart on behalf of the family that I have created this memorial fund in Brad Hovey's honor.

On Monday, June 15, 2026, the Hovey family suffered an unimaginable loss when Major Brad "Slate" Hovey died in the B-52 crash at Edwards Air Force Base.

Brad was a dedicated husband, father, son, pilot, and a friend to anyone he met. He leaves behind his wife and children.

While no amount of money could ever fill the void left behind in Brad's absence, donations will help his family adjust to life after sudden loss. Any support is deeply appreciated.

I also humbly ask that anyone reading this lift up all 8 families that lost loved ones in this tragedy. Godspeed.
