Chad Edward Nicholson II

Written by Chad's sister, Aliana Nicholson -

Losing a loved one is always hard but this one is going to be so much worse than any of the others. Children are not meant to be lost in this world. Especially not a child as bright as Chad. He was without a doubt the brightest and funniest person I have ever known. He was still just a kid and yet he had a bigger heart than most adults I’ve come across, actually any adult I’ve ever come across come to think of it. Chad was a protector. He was always there to defend anyone and everyone that he cared about. He was the first phone call anyone that knew him would be making when things went sour because Chad was the person that everyone knew they could count on. Every single one of Chad’s friends that I have spoken to and have all told me that he was the friend they knew they could always count on. Chad was the friend that opened his home to anybody that needed it. He was the friend that would turn around and put himself in harms way to lessen the amount of harm that his friends would have to suffer. His loyalty ran deeper than any other persons possibly could. Chad was the type of person that would never leave anyone behind regardless of the risk that meant he would put on himself. He was a fighter with a stronger will than anyone could handle. He was honest and brave and as much as he tried to hide it, that boy was a lover. He loved his family and his friends and his dog Uzi more than anything else in this life. Chad will be remembered by the way he was gentle with his mother and grandma and sisters and niece. He will be remembered by the way he was a role model to his brother and cousins and friends and nephew. He taught them to be defenders of their family, to be strong and look out for your loved ones, to be soft with women and to never leave anybody behind. Chad will be remembered by the goofy smile that he had as he picked on his family and as the charming happy go lucky unstoppable force that he was. He will be remembered for having the biggest heart that this world has ever seen. It is atrocious that the world has lost such a real and genuine person. Someone that had so much potential to change the course of so many peoples lives, the way he already did so much in the short time that he was here. Every single person was beyond lucky to have known Lil Chad and I know every person is feeling the somberness that has set into the world since he has been gone. This world will never be the same without you Chad, and our family will never be whole without you. You were an anchor, the person that never failed to make everyone in the room laugh, if you were here right now you would be able to make us all smile even now. I pray that you are smiling down on us all right now happy to be the center of attention. I pray that you see how much impact you made on so many peoples lives and I pray that you know how much we are going to miss you until we see you again. Every single person is beyond proud of the amazing young man that you were still becoming and we are beyond thankful for the time that we got to spend with you. You will never be forgotten Bubba. We will keep your spirit alive and here with us through all of the beautiful memories we made with you that could never be forgotten.
