Brady's Best Day Ever

Brady’s adventurous spirit and love for life led him to a wish that became one of his “best days ever.” His trip to Discovery Cove was filled with laughter, excitement, and unforgettable moments swimming with dolphins alongside his family. Brady's impact lives on through the joy he shared, and the wishes granted in his honor.



Brady’s Legacy of Joy

Brady Michael Niles lived only seven years, but his impact will last forever. With a heart full of kindness, a love for adventure, and an endless supply of jokes, Brady brought light to everyone he met. He was an honor roll student, a talented artist, and a sports lover who never let anything—not even cancer—stop him from playing the game. Even while undergoing treatment, he showed up for his teammates, cracked jokes with his doctors, and reminded everyone around him to choose joy.


A Wish That Became a “Best Day Ever”

Brady’s adventurous spirit and love for animals made his Make-A-Wish trip to Discovery Cove a dream come true. Swimming with dolphins and making unforgettable memories with his family, Brady’s wish was filled with the laughter and excitement he deserved. It was one of his “best days ever,” a moment of pure happiness that his family will cherish forever.


Granting Wishes in Brady’s Honor

Brady believed in making every day count, and his family has carried that mission forward. Each year, the Choose Joy! Golf Tournament is held in his honor, with the goal of granting 13 wishes—his favorite number—to children facing critical illnesses. It’s a way to continue his legacy of kindness, joy, and adventure, ensuring that more kids experience the same happiness he felt on his wish.
