He married Sherry Ratliff on December 10, 1977. Brad began a career with Oncor Electric Delivery in 1979 in Denison, Texas. Through the years, his job took him to Gainesville, Killeen, Copperas Cove, Bryan, Arlington and other locations in the DFW Metroplex, and finally to the Sherman/Paris district where currently worked. Brad loved baseball, hunting, fishing and singing in the church choir, but nothing was more important to him than spending time with his family.
