This is our dear friend, Brad Snook, who has sadly been part of the Paradise tragedy that has affected so many. He is a former dispatcher  that has served 23 years in total  for the Alameda County Fire Department and also for the California Highway Patrol.  He is a kind and giving soul that we have continuously witnessed over the years generously helping others and offering to do all he can for for friends and family.  He is has gone to great lengths to provide for his family and others and made many sacrifices.  Our hope is that some of that love can be returned to him now in his time of need. Brad was with his father at their Paradise home and were blessed to be successful evacuees and flee their home safely. Brad was injured with a broken leg at  the time and his father is elderly so they are beyond fortunate to safely have gotten out. However, they only left with a change of clothes and their medications. Other than that they have lost everything and Brad is displaced at this time. Our hope is to help ease some of this burden and help him in any way we can.  There is no question Brad would help any of us or someone he didn't know in these circumstances. He needs our help. He is facing a lot of heavy life burdens already and now has lost everything on top of it. People are resilient and can overcome and our hope is to aid him in doing this. He is  absolutely worthy of anything we can give. Thank you all in advance. Anything helps when you have nothing.
