Brady Douglas Whalen

Brady was one of those free spirits that never took one step inside the proverbial box. He had a love for life as big and loud as his infectious laugh. No one was ever a stranger, just someone he hadn’t made friends with yet. Brady had a dark side as big as his bright side. He started using marijuana in high school. While he was in college, he was introduced to more addictive and eventually deadly drugs. He had tried to fight the addiction several times with several different styles of rehabilitation. This is my way of keeping Brady’s memory alive. My hope with this charity program is to help keep another father from this task of writing about his dead son.
