RIP, Dr. Karr. Dr. Chadwick Karr was my favorite professor at Portland State. He was also my adviser and he encouraged and inspired me in ways that still resonate in my life. His kindness, wisdom, insight and willingness to share made him a very important person in my young life. Thank you, Dr. Karr, for being such a positive influence. You were a truly good man.

Dear Mary: I'm sorry for your loss. You and Chad always graced RAPS events, with time to talk, and his ever-present smile. My Best to you and your family.

So sorry to hear of his passing. My thoughts are with his family.

Dear Mary, We are so sorry about Chad's passing away. He was such a kind and friendly man, with so many students and colleagues who cared for him. We will think of him often and with many good memories. Love, Terry and Jack Cooper

Dear Mary,
Our sincere condolences to you and the family.
I remember Chad so well--always full of energy, and kept going for so long. Both of you greatly admired by Kenneth and me. Hope to see you soon.

Mary: We send our heartfelt condolences to you and your family. Chad was a longtime friend dating back to when we met during his first days at Portland State. His significant contributions to the psychology department were important as the institution became a full-fledged university. Our retirement association benefitted a great deal from his efforts. We all shall miss him while remembering him as a good friend and worthy colleague. Vic & Beryl Dahl
