My sympathy goes out to Chad's family and friends. Chad mentored many veterans and supervisors while working with the Veterans Construction Team over the years, supporting, and guiding them, and he became a very good friend to many. I myself have known Chad for many years. Many miss him and remember his dedication to others and his service to his country as a US Marine. I am proud to have had the pleasure of working with and knowing Chad over the years.
