Brad was part of his family business that owned and operated Riverside Market in Montrose, Michigan for 75 years and he owned and operated Riverside Market in Durand for 26 years. He was past president of the Montrose Blueberry Festival and was chosen as Grand Marshall along with his brother Pat in 2023.
