I'm going to miss Chad so much. I really loved him as an older brother. He always made me laugh. The last time I saw him, he came up behind me and bear hugged me when I turned around and saw that it was him, i had the biggest smile on my face. I always felt good when I was around him. I have so many good memories of Chad and I will cherish them forever. I love you Chad!

One of the last memories I have of Chad was him showing up at my parents home when he found out I was in town to visit for the first time since moving to California. It was like I hadnt left at all; he welcomed me with open arms and a warm smile and wanted to know when we could hang out. He really was a true and dear friend that will be sorely and forever missed. Jack, Maureen, Todd and Julie, my heart goes out to you. Chad, we had many great times together that I will always cherish- thank you for letting me be a part of your life. I love you! RIP.
Our deepest condolences for your loss. Patra, Lexi family
