Lots of love to Karyn, Chris and Ashleigh. What happened is truly devastating and I can not put my thoughts, emotions and feelings into words. I will miss the times spent at the bach and getting to grow up with Bradley during the holidays at Wellingtons’ Bay

Karen Chris and Ashley we are so absolutely devastated for your loss. The funeral was absolutely beautiful it showed what and incredible, loving and amazing young man Bradley was. Sending you all our love Jenni, Scott, Georgia and Harrison Higgins

The first thing that comes to mind is your cheeky smile. Mentioned so fondly today by your much loved family and friends. I am so grateful that you lived such a full life, touched so many souls and especially that you were a part of mine. Most of my childhood memories were spent at the bach with you all, being annoyed as Ashleigh said and chased by the eels that you and Reagan caught in home made nets. The number of New Years we brought in together with glowsticks, bag pipes and talent shows. The cold mornings I subbed in your soccer team. The snow trips and time you dedicated to teach me the ropes on the snow board. The silly home videos and birthday parties. The time we jumped out of the sky together in Queenstown. Hiking the Milford sound with you, at the front with you, Reagan and your Dad because "the girls" were too slow! Walking behind water falls. I'll always have those memories kept safe in my heart. Ready to share with your family and especially your sister, Ash. Thank you for being like a second little brother to me growing up. You were a treasured part of our lives.

May Bradley’s soul find rest. Though shortly known and lived with here in London I could clearly see that Bradley was a beam of light energising all the ones around him. I’m thankful for getting to know him and will pray for him and you together with you all though far. Biggest hugs to his family and loved ones and especially Julia who is loved and so welcome in London and Copenhagen and everywhere else. I and we hope to see you again. With love from chris

Bradley’s innately warm, positive attitude to life was infectious and it made him a wonderful friend. He was always the first person in the room to come up to you for a hug and a hello, and his ability to make sure you knew he cared was unmatched. Anyone who knew Bradley also knew he loved his mates. He always talked with a twinkle in his eyes about the adventures they got up to. My mum Pip (and actually my sister for a little while) was his lecturer at uni throughout all four years and he’d always spin yarns about how much he liked her lectures, and her funny jokes (which was kind because my mum is great but she’s got bad jokes) and even after uni every time he would ask me how she was, which was so sweet because she always talked about Bradley and Dion, a dynamic duo. Living in London without Bradley won’t be the same, but he was such a bright spot in our friendship group he truly was raised so well, and will forever be a legend. Sending all our love; Janey and Riley xxx
