 Chad was the type of person who never met a stranger. Always ready to take up a conversation and spread some cheer. He especially connected with the older generation and spent time visiting and making friends with residents in nursing homes. He paid close attention to those who didn’t often get visitors, just to brighten their days. Chad also enjoyed decorating, flower gardens, and shopping- especially for antiques. He enjoyed country music, his favorite artist being George Jones.
