Hi my name is Dustin Sterling.I knew Chad when I was in high school.He was a great person and I always enjoyed saying hi to him and seeing how smart he was as well.I hadn't seen Chad since high school.I graduated in 1994.I can't remember if he graduated in 1994 or 1995.I keep thinking that he graduated in 1994 but I am not sure.Im sorry that Chad is not around anymore.Im sorry for the loss of Chad as well.His wife,kids and his family and friends have my thoughts and prayers with them along with my sincerest condolences as well.I didn't know that Chad passed away until recently and then I saw his obituary again and I knew even then that he passed away.Chad was a great guy.I wish that I would have known sooner that he passed away but it's ok things happen.I didn't know that he was ill or anything like that.Thats why it shocked me when I saw that he passed away.Im glad that he did his best to look out for me in high school as well because of my medical condition.All of you guys have mine and my girlfriends thoughts and prayers with you along with our sincerest condolences as well.You guys can let his sister know and she can message me if you guys want to talk to me about anything at all.

I haven't seen Chad since high school, but I have great memories of him on and off the football field. He was big and strong, and was a great guy. I will always remember him and he will be missed.

I received the shocking news about Chad his morning while at work. Chad was a great boss to me, he always made sure I was taken care of, being new in the Dept.
My heart is truly saddened. May you all be comforted by the wonderful memories that you hold in your hearts.
