I am currently a summer intern at Arkansas Children's Hospital. I had the honor of meeting Brad at orientation where he filled me in how the rest would be boring but the summer would be great. he had a quiet assurance of himself that was obvious to me meeting him for the first time. Brad will be missed in all places and in all hearts. Your family is always on my mind, and you all are always in my prayers. Josh

Our thoughts and prayers go out to you and your extended family during this most difficult time. We enjoyed the time that we spent around Brad--we will always have the memories of the boys (usually 4 or 5 of them at a time, but sometimes just Brad and Josh) gathered around the TV playing Nintendo. They laughed and teased each other mercilessly but always had a good time. We are glad that Josh and Brad were friends and we thank you for honoring that friendship by asking Josh to be a part of Brad's service. Our prayer is that God will carry the burden of this loss until you are ready to carry it yourselves.

Some people have a liftetime to love, others only have moments. I will always think of Brad as a rose. Roses are hard to grow, and require alot of care, just like children. But when all the elements come together - a bloom so perfect appears, blooming so brilliantly and bright for all to see. And that is the way I will always think of Brad, blooming forever in our memory, until we meet on the other side of eternity where the roses never fade. I love you. Lisa

Brad was a wonderful person. He was easy to talk to, and ever so patient and understanding. He'd listen to me babble on about my secrets and stuff. He always knew what to say. His words I will cherish and remember for a long time to come. I miss you. To the Poole family, I am so sorry. Brad will be greatly missed, but he will live on in our memories and hearts.

Dear Joni, Tony, and Mallory, I know this is a terrible time for all of you and I am keeping you all in my thoughts. Often the first or only knowledge I have of some patients comes through my contact with the people who surround him. It is obvious that Bradley was an extraordinary young man who was loved by so many people. Surely you are still too stricken and stunned to think much about the coming weeks, and right now you are probably just trying to get through each hour. Later, however, you may need access to resources for healing, and if I can help in any way to get those needs met, I hope you will call me. Again, your loss is deeply mourned by me and the rest of the ER staff. Sincerely, Cynthia Webber, LCSW

To the Poole family, my deepest condolensces for the loss of Brad. I met Brad some months ago on a online forum (Bakakage Forums) that a few of his other friends chat on, and he quickly became someone that I would talk to often. He had a wonderful sense of humor and was very easy to talk with --- I would've loved to eventually meet him in real life. Once again, I hope that your family can heal from their pain of losing you, and never forget how wonderful a person that you were, Brad. You'll be missed by me, as well as the entire forum family. Thank You, Thomas Page (Osaka-san on the forums)

My heart aches for you during this unbearable time. My son Aaron Pool and Brad were friends. They always called each other "brother". Not just because their last names were almost the same, but because they truly were brothers in the heart. I have asked God to help you through this very hard time in your lives.
