Seeing one hundred people recognize how important this name is for Brad's boys brings me so much peace. This shows our family that we are not alone in protecting his legacy for Lorin and Landon.

Seeing the count climb fills me with so much hope for Lorin and Landon. Please take a moment to send this link to your family members so we can reach our next goal before I walk into that building to represent Brad.

You both as parents agreed to their name at the time of birth. it was a mutual agreement. if they want to change theirnlast name, they can do it at age 18. this is the last bit of their dad that they can hold onto. No way I would change my childrens last name to mine if their father died tragically.
Let the boys honor their father by carrying on his name. They can make the decision to change it when they're older if that's what THEY want. The mother should be helping her boys grieve the loss of their father, not being petty or spiteful.
I knew Brad, the boys and their mom. The boys always talked about their dad and were always so excited when their dad picked them up from daycare. I think the mom should keep their last name as "Mews". It isnt right to change their last name just because she didn't get along with their dad.
This father tragically died, he did not abandon his sons. He was and still is their Daddy. It would be wrong to take away the unmeasurable worth in the pride they have of maintaining their Dad's name.
These little boys have known their last name to be Mews. There is no reason they should have to change it and get confused about why because, I feel, in the future they will hear stories and see pictures of their dad and wonder why they weren't able to carry on the name!
IT'S not fair to your child to deprive them of the rights to have their father name as a memory of their father that will last forever.

This father died. He did NOT abandon his children. His spirit lives in them. Let them carry his name with pride and feel his presence whenever they say or sign their names. Their name is a priceless gift that was given to them at birth...it's part of who they are.
