Chad was born August 18, 1966 in Pontiac, Michigan to Rose (Schifano) Chapman and Ralph N. “Tony” Chapman. Soon after, he moved with his family to Kingwood, WV where he went to school.

Throughout his childhood education, Chad played football and baseball, sports that he loved. His top interests as an adult were Harley Davidson motorcycles, muscle cars, and rock music (particularly metal.) His hobbies included playing cards with his friends and board games with his mother.

He is preceded in death by his parents. He was devoted to his mother, and her to him; with heartfelt joy, they meet again.

He is survived by his daughter, grandchildren, paternal aunts, and many cousins.
