Brad:

You’re a great friend and a good man. Thanks for all the laughs and good times at the 2nd Battalion. Gagetown was a clear hoot thanks to your wit and humour. FTXs, BBQs, kitchen parties, and camping trips wouldn’t have been the same without you.

Best of luck in Alberta as you move up the CIS and Executive chains with the Feds. Keep me posted and stay in touch. No doubt, you’ll find yourself back in the East Coast in due time. We’ll cross paths again. Keep me mind if ever your outfit is in need of a ‘Tries Hard … Bottom Third’ type of guy.

Tell Robyn I’m sorry for drawing on her walls … I swore they were erasable.
