Dear Brophy Family,
My heart goes out to all of you. Chad was an exceptional employee but most of all my best friend. He was a very important member of Impact and could always be counted on to go the extra mile. I watched him suffer over the years but he always made it to work on time, and believe it or not never called in sick ever, never complained. He was extraordinary.
He helped my daughter and I through some very difficult times. Words cannot express the depth of loss we are feeling at this time and our hearts break for each and every one of you.
Sydney and I will miss him profoundly but will try to hold onto the memories of the good times we had with him. His strength of character, courage, intelligence, his unique sense of humor and positive attitude I believe changed the way I view the world. I have more compassion and sympathy for others than I had before I met Chad.....he made me a better person.
Goodbye my friend, my brother.

Today i lit a candle for CHAD...
Words seem so inadequate at this time. But may you find comfort in the knowledge that those who know you are thinking of you in your sadness.
Such wonderful memories we have of our childhood with CHAD. Always rememebering a smiling CHAD
I now will think of him strongly running, watching over his family in heaven. I am almost certain Ralph was there to greet him.
What an honor to have known such a wonderfully fine gentle-man.
Your love will live in each of us.......Xo

To have known Chad and all the family and having spent all of our childhood around you, I truly feel blessed. You all hold a special place in my heart. I was so happy to have come to Chad's fund raiser and to have met all of the "grandchildren". What a beautiful family. Rest in peace Chad and be free from the pain. You are an angel now. Give my mom and sister a big hug from me.
I love you all and my condolences go out to all of you.

I have always considered myself very fortunate to have had the Brophy's as next door neighbors in my childhood. You were family, and were my best friends. You are loved by so many, and you can take some solace in knowing that so many cared for Chad and also care for you. I am grateful to have known Chad the way that I do. I will always remember him as a friend and love him as a brother. I love you all, and all my condolences to your family.

Though the ones we love may leave life as we know it, in our memories, the love we know will always carry on. May those memories comfort you and bring you peace during this very difficult time. I got to know Chad & Joan from working at the Atonement Home in the early '80s and have never forgotten their kindness to everyone. Chad will never be forgotten by so many. I know your heart is aching and I am truly sorry for your loss.
