There are too many stories to share with Rad so I will pick a few of my favorites.
When Rad and I were teenagers I had the pleasure of going on a the Big Wild Moondance trip with him. I will never forget that I was being a complete baby about going and when I told Rad that (unaware he was going) he immediately gave me a hug and said that he was going as well. Immediately he brought my spirits up by talking about how excited he was to go and all of the fun we would have together. We went on to have an absolute blast on our trip and it was very apparent to me then that he had a distinct love for the outdoors. Rad had a way of being so positive about everything and he always projected that positive attitude on everyone around him. While this is just one example, throughout our friendship Rad has constantly been a source of positivity in my life and has always been quick to remind me to look at things in more more positive light and that is something I will always try and continue to do.
