I re-posted this information from CU site. I know Chad posted here too. He was a credit to the collectors every where. I will hold it a honor in knowing such a nice young man.

Peace be with you~ Chad!

OMG what a shock. I'm at a loss for words. I've had several conversations with him over the past 4 years, as I am sure many, many did. I am very saddened by Chad's passing. My thoughts are with him and his family. :sorry:

[ant]

i recieved an email from his mother yesterday informing me of his passing. he worked with me on many websites and we traded and did coin stuff at least once a week until march.

 

i will miss him greatly. for such a young man he was one of the folks you could always go to for assistance.

 

it makes me think that when i first met him 4 yrs ago he was 13 yrs old. and always had good info to pass on. he even sent my mother a thank you card for sending him a coin i accidently sent to her.

 

what a great young man!

I PM'ed Chad this image a couple of years ago and he adopted it as his avatar.

 

I am in total shock and disbelief this has happened.

 

Too young...too young.

Very sad news. You'd have never known he was a YN by the way he conducted himself. There's a donation drive ATS for anyone interested.

This is awful. He was a vibrant part of this community.

 

What a tragedy.

I looked Chad up on Facebook. There were many comments from friends and family how he positively effected everyone around him. He was a special person who will be greatly missed. My thoughts and prayers go out to his family he left behind.

So young... so much promise... so sad.

 

Ant, if you are in touch with his parents, please pass on my condolences!

Ant, if you could, please let his family know how truly sad we are, and let them know of the threads that have been started here and the tangents section, and let them know how much we cared and how much Chad will be missed.

[ant]

i indeed will. i am still in awe ,he was just saying he felt under weather.

 

i will link them to the forums so they themselves can see how we have been affected by his passing.and how many people he touched in path he walked

I have waited to post here or ATS, I had no idea that MM was so young, he was wise beyond his years, he WAS a true collector.

I feel humbled ..........................
