I met Chad in Highschool, although we were never close he left a lasting impression on me. Over the years I would see him occasionally and he always had smile when we met. Lately I really enjoyed seeing his posts on Facebook of the fabulous meals he would make with/for his friends. RIP Chad Sean Kuzdas

I am soooo late but I cannot believe this. Chad was such an amazing individual. Always so friendly, kind and just a great person♥️ he will definitely be missed, he always made conversations with my husband and I, he always always said hi! We will miss his morning waves & that smile of his 😭😭😭 just saw him last month for a maintenance repair and we talked about our futures and what he was working towards. We’re so heartbroken and sad, he definitely wasn’t just a maintenance guy to us but a friend ♥️ you’ll be missed Chad 😥 rest in peace

Chad made us feel welcome when we moved into the house next door to him. He helped us adjust into Midwestern living; he always looked out for us and checked in regularly. He would share food with us and kept us up to date on the happenings in the community. The last night I saw him, he was in our front yard listening for an owl. We listened together for a short time and were delighted when we heard the hoots. When I said goodnight that evening, I didn't think it'd be the last time. Chad is very missed, and we are thankful we had time with him as our neighbor and friend.
