Chad Staggs Obituary

Chad Staggs, 38, of Grain Valley, Mo., passed away Sunday, April 6, 2014.

A memorial service will be held at noon Saturday, April 12, at the Elks Lodge, 100 N.E. Brizendine Road, Blue Springs, MO 64014.

Chad was the first of twins born September 10, 1975, in Kansas City, Mo., to Terry (Holcombe) and Edward Phillip Staggs Jr. He attended Grain Valley and Blue Springs High School before earning his GED and later, his Electrical Journeyman's Degree. He was an electrician until this last year, where he branched out in fire restoration working for a Kansas-based company. He also helped with the Clean the Stream Team of Grain Valley, a twice a year event, as a Missouri Conservation Certified Water Tester. He supported the elderly of his community with snow plowing and landscaping. Chad also enjoyed playing sports, and anything outdoors including fishing, four wheeling, camping and canoeing. He was passionate about his children, encouraging Michaela to be outgoing and spending so much time with his son, Creighton. His family remembers him as hard working, vibrant, and a good father, brother and son.

Chad is survived by his daughter, Michaela Gutierrez, and son, Creighton Staggs, both of Grain Valley, Mo.; twin, Brad Staggs of Grain Valley, Mo.; brothers, Curt Beebe (Erika) of Blue Springs, Mo., Bryan Beebe of Independence, Mo., Justin Staggs of Dallas, Texas, and Jeremy Staggs of Brentwood, Mo.; father, Phillip Staggs (Catherine) of Lee's Summit, Mo.; mother, Terry Beebe of Grain Valley, Mo.; and companion of the last five years, Michelle Dowell.

The family encourages contributions to the Creighton Staggs Trust Fund, in care of Edward Jones (checks payable), 9301 E. 63rd St., Suite A, Raytown, MO 64133.
