My sympathies to Ruth, Brandon, Cameron and Sara. I worked with Chad during all his years with Morgan and never met a kinder more genuine person than your husband and dad. The mention of firing up our smokers for ribs or brisket led to many great conversations and the mere mention of his family would bring a glow and wide grin to his face. He was a proud family man that I know will be missed by all. Rest in peace my friend.

My condolences to Ruth, Brandon, Cameron and Sara. Chad will always be with us in our hearts, encouraging us to keep going. Here's Chad back in '83 on a scooter rally in San Diego, showed up not knowing anyone and left with many new friends, an honest, really great guy. Chad will truly be missed.
