God bless the family, his wife & daughters. My heart goes out for you at this tough time. I have been friends with Chad since junior high. I cherish the fun times we spent together. All of us hanging out at the corner of Nov. St., having late night drinks & shooting darts as we all grew older. He was a wonderful man with a kind heart & the best sense of humor! He always put a smile on everyone's face. He will be missed! We know Chad will not be alone in Heaven, I am sure Keith(Estes) will be...

Chad and I had been friends for several years. I had helped him get his job at Ameriform, and enjoyed working with him everyday. I'll miss ya Chad! I'll miss all the times we played Texas Hold Em, and goin' out for a beer. You were too young for me to have to tell you good-bye, but I pray you are at peace. And know that you'll always be thought of. See ya soon Buddy!....
