Kurt Schneider & Brad

Title: Paramedic Firefighter, Snohomish County Fire District #3

Matched: April, 2004

"We were walking along and Brad saw a dead jellyfish in the muck. I said 'Why don't you get that stick over there and poke it.' He looked at me with eyes as big golf balls and asked, 'Can I do that'? At this point I realized a male perspective had been absent in his life. I said, 'You bet, you can even throw it back into the ocean and toss some rocks into the water.' The rest of the day was spent with him digging and climbing and throwing rocks and poking dead stuff with sticks. I returned him to his mom dirty," writes Kurt.

For nearly 3 years, Brad and Kurt have biked through new scenery, explored beaches, caught a flick or two, and hiked the damp forests. Kurt's shop provides the tools and space for the two to create bird houses, a pinewood car, and an excuse to play with ferrets.

Brad is a very intelligent and talkative child. He has particularly enjoyed the chance to ride bikes and build projects. Brad's mother Becky said, "It's hard to remember all the activities that they do together." Brad is always happy to see Kurt. "He is able to talk to Kurt about everything," Becky commented, and added, "they are a perfect match and Kurt is awesome."
