I was so sorry to hear of Chad's passing.  Chad and I were friends and played at each other's houses while both attending Pleasant View Grade School.  I have many fond memories of him.  My thoughts are with you all during this difficult time.

Sincerely,

Mary Jo McClung Thoughts and Prayers March 26, 2012
 
Leonard... I am so sorry to hear of the death of your son. I know how it is to lose a loved one and just want you to know that my thoughts and Prayers are with you today and always. I don't remember meeting Chad, but probably did if he visited you and Diane and Todd and Rhonda. Just know that Chad is now walking with the Angels and is in God's arms. He will look after you and protect you as your Guardian Angel now as you did for him during his life. God Bless you, Diane, Debbie and your family.

Love,
Mary Jo
