I'm Cathy Montgomery and my son's name is Tyler Estep. I don't know if you ever heard Chad talk about Tyler but the two were very close friends. Chad use to stay at our house a good bit and it was always a joy to have him. He was always so kind especially to my mean cat that no one likes but Chad did and my cat liked him too! Chad was a kind, gentle soul, always cheerful, and offering to help me whenever he could. Tyler is devastated over his passing. We all are. We are praying for healing for your family. RIP Chad. You will be so greatly missed!
