Chad Andrew MacBrien, lost his earthly battle on January 12, 2025, in Mecklenburg, North Carolina. Born on July 25, 1983, in Chapel Hill, North Carolina, Chad lived a life characterized by his passion for the outdoors and his dedication to his family.

He completed his GED, demonstrating his commitment to personal growth and education. His hobbies included hunting and fishing, pursuits that exemplified his love for nature and the outdoors.

Beyond his professional accomplishments, Chad was cherished as a loving father to his children: Evan MacBrien and his spouse Leanna, Andrew MacBrien and his spouse Juliana, Faith MacBrien, Alexis MacBrien, and Conner MacBrien. His legacy will continue through his beloved grandchildren, Nova and Carson, who will remember him as a source of unconditional love and guidance.

Chad is survived by his parents, Bruce Andrew MacBrien and Cammie Renae Parent, and his sister, Casey Morgan. His untimely passing leaves a profound void in the lives of those who knew and loved him, but his spirit will undoubtedly live on in the cherished memories they hold.

Chad Andrew MacBrien will be deeply missed by his family, whose lives he enriched with his kindness, humor, and unwavering support.
