Chad received the Academic All-American Award in 1984 and was listed in the 1982/83 and 1984/85 edition of the “Who’s Who Among American High School Students” publication.

| We are so sorry to hear of this terrible loss to Dick,Betty, and Rick. They were good friends with our family. We met them through our mother taking care of Chad and Rick when they were children. We will always miss Chad. Our prayers are with the family during this time. |

| To the family of Chad, I worked with Chad at Allstate and he was a very nice man, he always had a smile. I only recently learned that his daughter Kelly is friends with my granddaughter Breanna. My thoughts and prayers are with all of you at this time of loss. Chad was a great man to have worked with and many people were blessed to know him. |

| I did not know Chad at all but my daughter Breanna is friends with Kelly. Kelly my heart goes out to you at this time of loss. It is unfortunate that a girl your age had to loss her father and deal with all that you are going through right now. I know that this journey will not be an easy one and I am extremely thankful that your grandparents have been there for you and are willing to take care of you now. If there is anything that I can do to help you just let us know. Breanna and our family |
