Dear family, my sincerest condolences to you. I had the privilege and honor of working with Chad when I interned at the Student Health Center Pharmacy. I learned many things about pharmacy that carried me through my career. He was such a pleasant person to work with. I am heartbroken I didn't get a chance to thank him personally for his contribution to my career. May God comfort and keep you.
