I never knew my website affected so many people and is part of your daily things to check. I honestly didn’t. It would never ever be an option to sell this place, SB is my baby, my pride and joy. I thought of closing because I cannot always keep up with Brad’s doings, I can’t be first and I can’t give you everything that is out there. I don’t have all the time, resources and money available. My previous post wasn’t a plea for anything, it was honestly my desperate last frustrated scream, if you will. I didn’t expect almost 50+ individual comments, emails etc.

When I started SimplyBrad.com back in 2005 with the help of a few very dear friends, I wanted to bring only real news, no gossip, no nonsense trash talk, I was so sick of such talk and websites, it always seemed to be the focus when you mention his name, unfortunately that hasn’t changed.

SB will only bring reliable respectful news, quality pictures, scans, videos and reliable information on the man, his work, passions and family. I stayed true to that. Just simply Brad.

Reading your comments the last days, I noticed that my focus with SB is obvious and appreciated by you all. I don’t speak out a lot because I hate forcing my opinion on subjects within my website, it’s not the focus. It is rare that I have to really speak up. But this time I had to show and tell you all that I am thankful for such mature, kind and respectful visitors. Making me see and feel that SimplyBrad.com is wanted and appreciated. Updates won’t change in great speed or size. I will stick with how I’ve run this website and update when I can and when I need to. Your help in any way is always appreciated. Your feedback brought me to this decision:

I won’t close.

  12. Thank you so much Josie.
    You made me and a lot of people so happy.
    We appreciate your hard work since ’05.
    You are such a fine person.

  13. That is fantastic news – please keep up the great work you do here. I too am sick of the rubbish written about Brad on some sites and this is a lovely place to visit.

  14. I would like to donate as well. I tried it several times but it doesn’t work from germany. Do you have an idea?? Thanks!

  15. Yeap!!! That’s great to hear!!!! For me it doesn’t matter if you aren’t the first! The main thing is, as you said already, that the infos are true and respectful! And I think the most important thing is that everybody and mainly yourself have fun with this site!!! Thank you very much for spent so much time to create this wonderful website! I think Brad would like it too! And he really can feel comfortable with it! :-)

  16. I would also like to express my thanks to the remains of the site, it would have been really bad and I were deeply saddened by how many else, it’s the best news of the day today on Sunday.

    I would also have to thank the more work you put here will be pure, like many heartfelt thanks.

    I’m so happy …love and kisses :-)

  20. I too sent a lil’ contribution so you can buy the pics you are so wonderful at picking. (you get ones nobody has)

    What a happy Sunday!!!! :)

  21. So glad to hear this. I really appreciate the effort you put into your site. It is indeed a labor of love and it shows…thx you.

    I rarely post anywhere, but I will be lending my support by regularly donating what I can. I know you are not soliciting, but I think it’s the right thing for me to do, not merely be a consumer of your work.

    thanks for again all your work..

  22. I’m crying from happiness.
    Josie..we love you!!!
    don’t you EVER forget that!!!!

    I’m jumping for joy. woohoo :) :)

    yes, it is your baby & you worked since ’05 with all your heart & made us so happy.

    kisses,
    Gaby
