I spoke with Earl on numerous occasions over the years, mainly about his research and commnications to all of us regarding the history of the Chadwick's and our other relations.

He was always generous with his time and loved talking about the results of his work.

God bless Earl

I worked with Earl at the Montgomery County Common Pleas Court - Probation Department. He was kind hearted - very passionate about his work. I always enjoyed looked forward to hearing about his vacations and looking at his many pictures. One thing for sure is that he loved his family. Rest in peace Earl.

We have been friends with Earl since September, 1961, when we met as freshmen at Wittenberg and will forever hold and share memories of our dear chum and his wife Marion as long as we live. Our sincere sympathy goes out to the families.

Rev Earl Chadwick married my husband, Don and I in the small Chapel in the Lutheran Church in downtown Dayton on August 25, 1974. Best day of my life. My husband passed 18 years ago and I miss him terribly. Rev Chadwick was an amazing man and evidently led an exemplary life. My sympathies to his family and friends
