We are so very sorry for your loss. Betty and Bill no parent should ever have to go through this, it’s not right or fair. Stephen our heart breaks for you to loose your brother. We are very glad that we got to meet him at many family get togethers with you and Lisa. He was always entertaining telling us stories and we appreciated his great sense of humour. He exuded great kindness and thoughtfulness. My heart breaks for you and all of the family.

OMG Keith passed away :(. Just found out now. OMG, such a beautiful human being left too soon. Keith was a saint, I never seen this guy speak bad about anybody & he always greeted people with a smile. Can’t believe his departure is for real. My heart goes to his loved ones. Rest In Peace Brother. :'(

Our sincerest condolences to the family. We had such great times together at the cottage flyboarding, wake surfing, boating…and fixing broken water craft. Dave was just like a member of the Bradey family and will be deeply missed.

To Bill, Betty, and your wonderful family, our sincerest condolences on the passing of Dave. We did not know your son, but knowing you, we feel he was a very special young man. Our thoughts are with you all at this time. Fond memories will always be there for you I am sure.
Danielle Caine says
I am so so sorry for your loss. Dave was a good man, and a great friend. My family has known him for over 20 years and he was like family. His sudden departure is so unfair. He will be greatly missed.
Joan Aprile says
I am deeply saddened by David’s sudden death. I’ve seen him more often in the last few years as he totally stepped up to assist Bill which he said was his great privilege. It’s a common theme in the condolences here, that he was so helpful to so many. That was so like Bill who, even when he couldn’t, still offered his help every time we spoke. David was always willing and happy to do whatever was asked of him, and more. He also generously arranged for a fun Toronto waterfront outing each summer when his cousin Gail, arrived for her visit from Vancouver. I will miss that and his almost daily feed of ‘Dad’ jokes. I just wish he’d made as big an effort looking after himself as he did, others. Not having a family doctor certainly didn’t help. Never one to be idle, I hope he will rest easy now. Thanks for everything, David. We’ll miss you.
Sabrina Fleming says
My sincerest condolences on Dave’s passing. I spent time with him at the Bradey cottage when I was a teen and he always struck me as a kind and gentle person, quick with a smile or a laugh.

So saddened by the sudden loss of such a wonderful man. I met David through Michelle 3 years ago and he’s always been such a generous & helpful person. He always took the time to make sure Michelle, her kids & her grandson Angelo was short of nothing especially after losing her daughter; David quickly became the center of her world. Working diligently to always love & care for him, and was right by his side in his last moments . David & Michelle were always so playful and lovely when they came to visit! You will be so missed David Thanks for all you’ve done here now sleep well

Wendy & family says
I’m still in shock and heartbroken over the loss of Dave. He was truly an amazing man—always there when you needed help or had a question, no matter what. His kindness, wisdom, and generosity touched so many lives, and it’s hard to imagine a world without him in it. My heart goes out to his family and loved ones during this incredibly difficult time. He will be deeply missed. Rest in paradise Dave

Jules Siddiqui says
Dave moved to the neighborhood just a few years ago and quickly became a fixture here, making friends and generously offering his help to any and all. We had many long chats under the street lamps during the summers. Dave had so many stories and, of course, his trademark jokes that were always followed by a big, hearty laugh. He always spoke with great pride about his boys, and the value he placed on family and good friends. He was a model of a hard working man, whether at his job, on his properties, or on his (and everyone else’s) cars. He will be missed. Deepest condolences to Dave’s parents, siblings, children and grandchildren.

I am so very sorry for your loss. We were able to get to know Dave by being next door neighbours to the Bradeys. He was a sweet man so friendly and willing to lend a helping hand. He will be missed.
