My friend Brad Wims finally made it home to see his maker. Brad endured a long battle with cancer and fought valiantly, faithfully and with the upmost character. He was called home on Monday, March 2. The thought that keeps crossing my mind is Brad's love for singing and praising God in song and how has now joined the chorus of angels that surround our Lord with praise and awe! I picked this pic of Brad because it shows me so much of how he lived his life. Brad was a servant that always picked people up and carried them. Giving them the strength and encouragment they so desperately needed. I love this pic because it is how Brad will be remembered. Strong, active, serving and full of life. Even carrying someone down the highest mountain in SE Asia - Mt. Kinabalu - brought a smile and joy to Brad's face.
Brad you made it home and you will be dearly missed. Your family will be in my prayers and will be taken care of until we can all meet with you again.

great picture. nice tribute. Hugs to you brother!
So glad I was able to see you last night.
Thank you for the wonderful tribute to Brad and the pics of the Fun Run. It was good to see you, but obviously for all the wrong reasons. Come back for another visit soon!
I love what you wrote Stephen. It's funny...I remember that day in Asia like it was yesterday (maybe it was because we were all frozen popsicle sticks!) You are right...that servant heart, the strength, and natural leadership are the things that I will certainly remember most about him. He is such a good man & will be greatly missed.
