The Kelley Family

Donation protected
Brad Kelley leaves behind his wife Amy and their three children Carter, CJ and Bryonna.  Late Monday evening on May 6th 2019, Brad and his best friend Michael were visiting a friend of theirs. When for reasons that are not entirley clear at this point,  Brad and his friend Michael were senselessly  shot and killed by two other men. Brad at 35 years of age was taken from all that knew and loved him entirley too soon. Brad was the kind of man that all men could admire and look up to. His love for his family and his kind heart will have an impact that will last for a lifetime. He will be remembered for his jovial spirit, the loyal employee that worked tirelessly to support his family, and someone who you could always count on; a truly wonderful human being that will be incredibly missed by the many lives he touched. Brad would always greet you with a smile or funny joke, he uplifted those who were around him with laughter, respect and always made you feel appreciated. He loved fishing, the towing industry, NASCAR, and spending long summer days catching crawdads with his friends and family. 

At this time I am asking that you open your hearts to help Brads family as they try and cope with their loss. Brad was the bread winner for the family, things like rent, food on the table, and other household bills and necessity’s will be important to the family in the near future. His wife, Amy is doing her best to hold her and her family together at this time. All I ask is for your support (even the smallest amount matters) and to help carry some of the load for this wonderful family that lost their father and husband to senseless act of violence. 

If any of you are members of the towing industry, and would like to participate in Brads memorial service with your tow truck to give him a proper goodbye the way he would have wanted us to. You may reach out to me via Facebook (Nate Ekerson) and I will provide you with details. There is currently nothing planned, but will be soon. Thank you, for taking the time to read. Even if you can’t donate, please say a prayer for him and his family.
