I still can't believe that Chad is gone. Even thogh he died almost two weeks ago, I still can't think of anything else. Going to Atonement and then to Rummel with Chad, he was one of my best friends and it breaks my heart to see his family going through this. Ms. Carol and Mr. Jim, if yall need anything at all you can call me anytime. Same goes for anybody else.

Chad, we had some good times. I miss you so much. We love you man. Be our guardian angel and watch out for us up there man. Can't wait to see you again.

I never knew Chad personally. But I am sure he was a great guy. The look in his wonderful girlfriends eyes when she talked about him and the smile on her face were proof of that.I hope he will rest in peace. He and his familly and friends,espicially Jessica are in my prayers as well as many others'.

Chad,



When my mom told me what happened, i couldn't belive it. its unreal. i remember all of your birthdays, and family occasions. going into new orleans every summer to see you and jimmy had to be some of the best times i have ever had. remember when we were shotting that bb gun outside of your house, and Brandon called your grandma. i haven't ever felt like this, and i haven't cried really hard in a long time. i am truly going to miss you, but i know that you're in a better place now, with biggie and pac.

Rest in Peace Chad

Chad when i heard from your friend Jeff that you were gone I almost fell over i was heart broken. I know we weren't real good freinds but still you were pretty cool guy. It is sad to see you go at such a young age. I will pray for you and for your family in this very difficult time.

As I sit down, I want to cry,

And feel the tears come from my eyes.

A whisper of your solemn love,

Is draped upon me from up above.

I want to sob, what should I do?

I keep finding myself missing you.

But I am thankful, I do not lie,

That your new home is in the sky.

You were taken from me from the heavens,But I find myself thinking, though it cuts like a knife,

I'm so happy that you've finally started your life. Chad,

hay kid you know we all love you and you will always be in our hearts

Love Dana
