Cade Gold Obituary
YORK
Cade Michael Gold, our 20 year gift, joined his Mamaw in heaven on Friday, March 16, 2018.
Cade was the beloved son of Abby and Shawn and big brother to Carsyn, with whom he shared the same birthday (January 15) and so much more.
The entire family is absolutely heart broken by this loss, however the outpouring of love and support from family, friends, teammates and anyone that knew Cade has been unbelievable and such a comfort during this difficult time.
Cade's number one priority was his family and we will forever cherish the time we had with him.
While at Dallastown High School (Class of 2016) Cade was President of the National Honor Society, a first team All-Conference quarterback and team captain for two league championship football teams, received the Pennsylvania Mini Maxwell Award for athletic and academic achievement, was a league champ and team captain in lacrosse and numerous other achievements and acts of humility and kindness that are only carried in peoples' hearts, not the headlines. He enjoyed all things that challenged him mentally and physically. He was an avid runner and enjoyed golfing, biking, kayaking, and tennis.
He was attending Washington & Lee University (VA) as a pre-med major and was the epitome for their core principles of honor, trust and integrity. While at W&L, he played football and was the VP of the pre-med club.
A public memorial for Cade will be held on Saturday, March 24 beginning at 10 a.m. at Living Word Community Church, 2530 Cape Horn Road, Red Lion. There will be an opportunity during the service for anyone that wants to speak about their experiences with Cade.
In lieu of flowers, memorial contributions may be made to Dallastown Area Educational Foundation, c/o Ashley Spector, 700 New School Rd., Dallastown, PA 17313 for the Cade Gold Scholarship to benefit Dallastown Football and Lacrosse players.
Life Tributes by Olewiler & Heffner Funeral Chapel & Crematory, Inc., 35 Gotham Place, Red Lion, is in charge of arrangements.

To the Gold Family, I'm a York native and a W&L graduate ('90). I just saw the news of Cade's passing in the alumni magazine and wanted to pass on my condolences. Reading about Cade, it's clear that he was a wonderful young man and a credit to his family and community.
I pray for God's comfort and moments of happy reflection on a life well lived.

Shawn and Abby, with deepest and sincerest thoughts and prayers for the loss of your son. Your hearts will never be whole again. You will need strength, courage and a belief that you will be together again to get you through each day. I lost my son at a young age as well and the heartfelt pain is sometimes almost impossible to handle but we pray and somehow another second, another minute goes by. A little comfort is knowing Cade is in heaven and in a much better place than we are. We don't know what his future may have brought but we do know he is safe, he is relieved of all worries, he is pure and he will always be with you in spirit and you with him in everlasting love. Bless you and your family.

I am a friend of Abby's parents and wanted you to know that my thoughts and prayers for your patience in understanding why you must go through this loss are with your whole family. He was so young but left an impact that some will never leave if they live to be 100. Cade's memories will be with you until one day we will all be joined together to get the answers we seek. In the meantime try to realize that he is now at peace in a place we all hope to be some day.

I didn't have the pleasure of knowing this bright looking young man with a beautiful smile. From what I read it seems Cade has given to his family so much in his 20 years of life, more than many people give to their family in a lifetime.
I wish you the strength to make it through this tragedy. Don't forget each other. Allow family and friends to comfort you.
My heart grieves with you, and I pray someday you find peace.
Please accept my sincere sympathy,
Colin's mother-in-law, Sheree

You were the best cousin in the world. I was always so proud of you. You were so smart and athletic, and I was so excited to sit on those sidelines game after game to watch you play. But beyond that, you were kind and polite. You always put others first. I miss your laughter. I miss the nights when we all got together at my house. Sunday dinners and holidays will be so different without you, but I know you are with us. You will always live in my heart. I hope you are at peace. First borns for life :)

Cade, I didnt know you very long but I am so happy I got to know you at all. You were such an amazing and wonderful man. I always loved having you for dinner because you always made me laugh and I knew I could count on you to eat all of my Krave cereal. We may have only known each other briefly but I knew you were special because Adam loved you so much and he was so lucky to be loved by you. You touched the lives of everyone that had the pleasure to know you and I feel truly blessed to be a part of that. You are deeply missed but your love and your laughter will live on through all of us. Rest In Peace I love you.
