Though Chad was a confirmed bachelor and always enjoyed a party, two of the most significant loves of his life were Priya and Whitney.....with whom he has remained friends.
Chad very much loved and respected his family and always brought us so much joy and happiness. This family extended deeply to his "brothers from other mothers" .....everlasting lifelong relationships.
A huge fan of the New Orleans Saints, Chad proudly reflected the black & gold and fleur de lis. This was evident in all of his decor, garments and even his bumper stickers.
Chad had a very healthy appetite for the outdoors which included becoming a highly skilled fisherman, hunter, ATV rider, skier, skateboarder, motorcyclist, visiting beaches and mountains, amusement parks.
With a smile that lights up a room when he enters, Chad stole many hearts. With a penchant for traveling, no matter where he roamed, Chad adored home - New Orleans and St. Bernard Parish.
