CONCURRENT RESOLUTION
On
the death of Bradley "Brad" Brauer.
(TEXT OF BILL BEGINS ON NEXT PAGE)
Bradley "Brad" Brauer passed away on January 23, 2026
at the age of 61.
Brad was born on July 7, 1964, at Fort Rucker, Alabama to Sally
Brauer and Jimmy Mac Brasher.� He grew up surrounded by a family that instilled
in him the values of honesty, compassion and service, which he carried
throughout every aspect of his life.
In 1983, Brad moved to Arizona, where he later attended Arizona
State University.� Brad built a successful career as a realtor, serving his
clients with integrity and kindness for more than 20 years.� His work extended
far beyond real estate as he was an active and respected presence in his
community, most notably as President of the Willo Neighborhood Association.�
Brad's leadership and advocacy for neighborhood, city and state policies leaves
a lasting impact on countless residents.
In his personal life, Brad's heart belonged to his husband of
ten years, Andrew.� Their partnership was rooted in devotion, laughter,
adventure and deep respect.
Music played a big role in Brad's life.� He especially loved
the classic rock and roll of the 1960s through the 1980s, loved his vinyl
records and always said that was the best way to listen to the heart and soul
of a song.
Brad is survived by his husband, Andrew Sansoni, his mother,
Sally Brauer, his sister, Lynne Brasher, his brother, Scott Brauer, his sisters-in-law,
Laura Brasher and Stephanie Brasher, his nephew, Dallas Brasher, and his niece,
Lexi Brauer.� Brad's warm heart, leadership and radiant spirit touched all who
knew him, and his absence leaves a lasting void in the community he so
passionately served.
Therefore
Be it resolved by the House of Representatives of the State of
Arizona, the Senate concurring:
That the Members of the Legislature express sincere regret at
the passing of Bradley "Brad" Brauer and extend their deepest
sympathies to his surviving family members.
