The Bradley Center in South Jordan gives children a place to grieve after the loss of a parent or sibling. Carrie Moore and Janice Taylor started the center after their own children had to deal with a devastating loss. (Photos courtesy of Kathie Marsh.)
t takes more than time to heal from devastation; it takes love, support, empathy and community. When Carrie Moore and Janice Taylor lost their husbands in a plane crash on Jan. 15, 1996, the two women built that community to help their children cope with the loss of their fathers. The mothers started the Bradley Center (11100 S. Redwood Rd.), which has become a place for children and families to try to understand and deal with the devastation inflicted upon them by the tragic loss of a loved one. “I could not find what I needed for my kids after losing their dad in such a traumatic way,” Moore said. “I was looking for resources for my kids but support groups had long waiting lists.” Moore’s three children were aged 12 and younger when their father, Brad Moore, was killed along with five other Coca-Cola executives in the crash. After the accident, the widows met each month, going to dinner and talking about how hard it was raising children alone. Moore said laughing and crying together made a big difference and she wanted to create something like that for the kids. Moore, who became a hospice and hospital chaplain, understands how grief is isolating. The Bradley Center gives kids a place to talk about the hard feelings and difficult emotions in a safe place.
