SBHS Sue Brady: heart of gold
Friday, 13 March, 2026
radio pro, philanthropist, caregiver, docf.org By heart, and with closed eyes, I have a very vulnerable spot for the unhoused. -Sue Brady For millions of radio listeners in Boston, Sue Brady was that fun, friendly, relatable voice they heard on the air for years. In this episode, we get to know the deepest layers of a woman who will always love radio but has turned the page to discover a whole new passion as a Certified Nursing Assistant. Born and raised in Stoneham, Massachusetts, by an Army vet and a beloved school teacher, Sue learned lessons in kindness and charity early in life from a mother who would prepare peanut butter and jelly sandwiches for the homeless every weekend, load her girls in the car, and distribute the food at the Boston Common. This experience informed Sue’s devotion to the unhoused, and she has passed these values on to her own children. A tireless volunteer and fundraiser for Boston Rescue Mission, The Winter Walk, Rosie’s Place, and Back on My Feet, I asked Sue what she wishes people knew about the issue: “We are all the same, and we are a life choice, addiction, or diagnosis away from being homeless.” Always willing to go the extra mile for a worthy cause, Sue also supports Boston Children’s Hospital, The Red Sox Foundation, and the Ellie Fund. In fact, she serves on the board of the David Ortiz Children’s Fund www.docf.org and enjoys a long friendship with the Red Sox slugger and Hall of Famer who calls her “Rubia,” which means “blonde” in Spanish. When I asked Sue to explain the motivation behind becoming a caregiver, the story that emerged will break your heart and lift your soul. Trust me, this conversation is gold.
