Chad was a diesel mechanic most of his life. He had a love for solving problems and working with his hands. After becoming disabled, he picked up a love of reading, and creating model cars. Chad was very artistic and creative and did well drawing and writing short children stories. His final days were spent getting to know his grandchildren better by going on adventures with them, teaching them about animals, telling them stories, and overall just building memories. Chad also loved to joke, laugh, make others laugh, and always tried to make everyone feel welcome and loved. He also loved to help anyone in anyway that he possibly could. He was definitely the definition of someone who would give his shirt off his back to someone else in need. Chad was very proud of his children and grandchildren and tried to tell them frequently.
