About Me

Many people have told me that they have had a hard time contacting me to find out information on Brad's senseless murder or how people can help, so I created this myspace hoping this will be a line of communication.My brother was violently taken from our family on December 10, 2006 at approximately 8:15 PM. He was shot in his car after eating dinner at Houstons restaurant in N. Miami Beach, FL in what detectives feel was a botched car jacking attempt. While taking his last breaths, he made a hero’s effort to drive himself to safety in order to save his own life. Our hearts will always have an emptiness that will never be filled. It is hard for us to imagine that the monster(s) who took Brad’s life are still roaming around waiting to viciously take another innocent life. Brad was 32 yrs old, 6'10 inches tall, a former University of Miami student-athlete, who furthered his education to become a successful Chiropractor. Brad was about to own his own practice that he devoted the last 4 yrs of his life to. Many people say he was "a giant of a man" not for his height but for the person he was. He wanted the best for all physically, emotionally, and mentally. That is why he dedicated his short life to helping others reach their potential through his focus on wellness. He volunteered much of his time to local high schools, community events, the Chamber of Commerce, and was the volunteer Chiropractor for the AVP Pro Volleyball Tournaments. He was loved by so many - his family, his friends, his patients, and his co-workers.

My Interests

I'd like to meet:



..What did Dr. Brad Timpf want for his future? He wanted to find that special woman to share his life with. He wanted precious children to add to his large close-knit loving family. He wanted to see his devoted parents retire and watch over them the way they always watched over him. He wanted to see his sister get married, be a loving uncle to her children, and continue to be her best friend. He wanted to remain being a large part of his grandmother, aunts’, and uncles’ lives. He wanted to help guide his young cousins into adulthood by always unconditionally being there for them. He wanted to continue to grow emotionally and mentally. He wanted to further educate himself in all areas. He wanted to meet new people in order to enhance his life and due the same in return for their lives. He wanted to give back as many blessing as he felt he had been given. He wanted to live a long life to its fullest, and to always go for the gusto! Even though he cannot fulfill his life’s dreams he would wish for all who knew him to fulfill theirs.
....
for establishing the Dr. Brad Timpf Memorial Fund that will allow a senior each year at Taravella to receive a scholarship. Not only did she initiate the fund, she has attended many of the fundraising events to raise money. Janine is my Aunt's neighbor and knew Brad through family gatherings as well as through her 91 year-old Aunt that was a patient of Brad's. My family and I cannot put into words how grateful we are that this fund was initiated and could not have done it without her! ..
one of Brad's patients, for developing the memory band bracelet and donating the money to the scholarship fund. This has allowed people to wear something that was truly a piece of Brad, while making a contribution to a good cause. My family cannot thank you enough for your good heart and motivation to keep Brad's memory alive! For more on upcoming and past scholarship events visit http://livethedash.blogspot.com/..
Thank you to Dr. Todd Narson for not only initiating the renaming of the Chiropractic Sports Physician of the Year award, to the Dr. Bradley Timpf Chiropractic Sports Physician of the Year Award, but also naming Brad the recipient of the award for 2006. Thank you also to Dr. Joanne Fava, the current sports council president, Dr. Val Gambina, Dr. Mike Mathesie and Dr. Tom Hyde for making this possible. We are so honored and touched as a family and know Brad would be so proud!

....
for retiring Brad's Taravella jersey number 50 and hanging it on the wall in the gym along with his UM jersey for many, many years to come. Mr. Cerra, Coach Moss, Mr. Linde and all the staff involved in putting this special evening together went above and beyond! Not only did they present my family with Brad's Trojan jersey framed, they had a candle made in JPT colors, a signing board with Brad's picture on it, and all the JPT players, the referees and the staff were wearing the memory band bracelets. The kind words they shared about Brad will live forever in our hearts. What an honor for Brad and our family! Brad put in a lot of hard work and dedication in to being an outstanding student-athlete and a role model for others...
My family and I would also like to thank EVERYONE for your continued support. We could not be getting through each day without it. Words cannot express how much we appreciate the thoughts and prayers you all have given us. THANK YOU AGAIN!!!
