Dear Puddephatt Family,

Brad was extremely friendly, and I can confirm he had a rolodex of "Dad Jokes" that was never ending! I am so sorry for your loss. My thoughts are with you and your family.

Brad did a stint on our crew at OPG some years ago. He was always friendly and willing to work hard. Even years after leaving our crew, Brad remembered me and would say hello when passing in the hallways. He also made it a point to donate to our annual charity campaign when he heard of the initiative. These and other qualities speak to his character. He will be missed. My sincere condolences to the entire family for this great loss.

Sad to have such a sudden loss. Difficult for all.

Brad I pray that your presence will be felt continually and joyfully by all of your family and friends. I also pray for faith and hope for us all.

May your children always be proud of their father.

Love, Lew
