I remember going to Virginia’s beach house and spending time with Chad (and the rest of the Leons)! Those were happy and fun times. I know Chad is reminiscing about those times now with Virginia, Blackie, Gina Jill, and Tommy. Rest in peace and the loving embrace of God and your family who was there to greet you.
God bless you all during this very hard time.
Sincere sympathy.

Julie, your letter says it all perfectly.
Chad, since school we only saw each other’s fb but I will always think of you making jokes and picking on me in class. It’s cool though I know you secretly prob had a crush lol!!!
I know your family and kids will miss you as we will all miss different things about you. Watch over your family and help guide them to make good choices. If you happen to run into my brother Wallace tell him I miss him. You all take care of one another up there . Just know your sister is one very special sister, she is strong and until you were getting ready to leave this world I honestly never knew the courage she has.
Since you left Julie and I have been able to talk alot and that I am greatful for. 🙏 ❤️THE Zambardino fam
Chad:
I still cannot believe you are gone. I feel like I am in a horrible dream and will wake up soon. So many people have reached out asking how I am doing and the only word I can think of is “broken.” Abbi and Brody miss you a lot and wanted to know who will tickle them now. Dillon wanted your recipe book or at least your recipe for the deviled eggs. I hope you had a great welcoming party up there. Try not to say the “F” too much with Liz! You are the only Dallas Cowboy hater in Heaven, so it’s probably time to come out of the closet and let everyone know how much of a fan you really are! Don’t worry about Peyton and Easton – they will be taken care of. Buddy is living it up in Buna, but misses his daddy. Always watch over us down here and I will keep looking for the the signs of you letting me know you are ok. See you when get there. ❤️ your little sister
Miss you Chad you were always there wene I need you you got your hands full have fun at Walmart lol
Chad,
You are sorely missed. My childhood would not have been the same without you and Chris. So many unforgettable memories.
Wish I could have seen you before you left. May God be with your family. The peace of Jesus is now yours.
Miss you little brother,
Brandon Adams and family
Condolences to the family. May God’s grace be poured out during this difficult time.
Our prayers to go out the family and friends. Our condolences thoughts and prayers ❤️
David & Kathi Rendon
God bless the family and especially his 2 boys, who were the light of his life. We chatted briefly a few months ago, but it’s hard to imagine some leaving us. Prayers to those who loved him.
I love you Chad ❤️. Now you can get the peace you couldn’t find on earth🙏🏻
