    Mrs. Rushing & Mandy, I am so sorry to learn of this news. Brad and I were good friends as students at West Lincoln. He kept me laughing, and I always appreciated his friendly demeanor and sense of humor. Many blessings to both of you and the entire family. I pray for strength and healing. —LaWanda Black Dickens

    Was so sorry to hear this. I remember him as a young boy driving his dad's pickup with an attitude "I am big like dad". Prayers go out to you Sara Lynn, Mandy and his family. Another one added to the Lucien cemetery. ❤️❤️
