His love for his Family was boundless, and he took immense pride in their accomplishments and the individuals they have become.

Brad's life was a testament to his unwavering strength and kindness. He touched the lives of many through his generosity and spirit, leaving a lasting impact on all who knew him. His sense of humor, High energy and zest for life brought joy to countless moments, and his memory will forever be cherished by his family and friends.

They called Brad “Moses” in Prison because he led so many lost souls to Jesus our Messiah. Brad had to many accolades to list here but here are just a few in remembrance of him.

They called him Popeye on the football field. He played collegiately at West Virginia State. Before then he lead Meigs county football as the running back and set many records. He set a school record with 278 yards and 5 touchdown before half time in which Coach Chauncey pulled him after the first half out of respect for the other team. When he played basketball his team had some of the best seasons in Meigs county history. He also had success and thrived naturally on the Track and in field events. Brad had the quickest first step most have ever seen but you couldn’t know how quick or strong he was unless you had the guts to find out. He refused to cut anyone any slack in competition. He knew how to light a fire under those he played with because he led by example. He was vocal and demanded the best of everyone when going to war on the field, the Basketball court or in the Boxing gym. We thank him for instilling that in his kids and so many others.

He was an inspiration and an educator to countless young kids, men and women especially on the basketball court. He almost died by heart attack on the court a couple months ago playing in a tournament with the young ones. They were still trying to keep up and play the way he wanted them to. He demanded max effort and believed they ought to put forth excellence every second of every play. If they didn’t learn anything else, they learned hard work and dedication to one’s craft where excuses can’t exist because the next play has already begun. Brad passed away with his Boxing gloves on during an early morning workout. He truly died doing what he loved.

He was a very special and unique athlete, a fierce competitor and had an even bigger heart for others.

A memorial service to celebrate Brad’s life will be held on Saturday September 21st viewing from 11am-1pm and the funeral to follow at Anderson McDaniel’s funeral home.

Brad will be buried in the White Cemetery where grave side services will be held. In lieu of flowers, the family requests donations be made to Bekah Robinson in Brad’s honor to cover funeral expenses.

Brad Kendal Robinson will be deeply missed but fondly remembered by all who had the privilege of knowing him. May God Bless you all!
