August 21, 1986 - July 13, 2025

It is with profound sadness that we announce the passing of Anderson "Chase" Childers on Sunday, July 13, 2025 in a heroic act of bravery, saving a family of five in Pawleys Island, SC. Chase was 38 years old.

He is survived by his devoted wife, childhood sweetheart and soulmate, Nataley Childers of Dallas, GA; his three beloved children-Barrett, Brooks, and Bella-who were the light of his life; his loving mother, Nancy Childers of Acworth, GA; and his brother, Chance Childers of Nashville, TN.

Chase Childers was a man of extraordinary talent, courage, and heart. A former professional baseball player with the Baltimore Orioles, Chase brought passion and determination to everything he pursued. After his time in professional sports, he continued to serve and protect his community as a police officer in Cobb County, where he was honored with a lifetime achievement award for saving multiple lives during his service. He went on to be one of the top inspectors in his company which led him to pursue his dream of building homes for families. His selflessness, quick thinking, and commitment to others defined his life and ultimately his final act.

In addition to his public service, Chase was a skilled fisherman and an exceptional craftsman who could build anything he set his mind to. Whether casting a line or building with his hands, he found peace and purpose in creating and exploring. He was a skilled guitar player and had a passion for music. He loved worshiping the Lord through guitar playing and music.

But beyond all of his accomplishments, Chase's proudest roles were that of Husband, Father, Son, Brother, Friend. He adored his children and was deeply involved in their lives-coaching, guiding, and loving them unconditionally. Taking every opportunity to be present and teach his children about the gift of life. His marriage to Nataley was a love story that began in their teenage years and endured with deep friendship, laughter, and unwavering commitment.

Chase will be remembered not only for his achievements and talents, but for the way he lived-with integrity, faith, strength, and an unshakable love for his family. His final act of courage was a true reflection of the man he was - selfless, brave, and full of heart. His legacy will live on in the lives he touched and the family he loved so fiercely.

A celebration of Chase's life will be held at the Barnsley Resort in Adairsville, Georgia on Sunday, August 10th at 10am.

In lieu of flowers, the family asks that donations be made to a fund being established for the future of his three children. QR CODE provided.
