Donald "Chad" Charlton Corley Jr., born on September 24, 1967, in Thomasville, Georgia, passed away on September 28, 2025, at the age of 58. A resident of Middleburg, Florida, Chad was known for his compassionate, loyal, thoughtful, and loving heart.
Preceded in death by his mother, Catherine (Cannington) Corley. Chad dedicated his life to a career as a heavy equipment operator. His commitment to his work was matched by his devotion to his family.
Chad is survived by his loving and devoted wife of 20 years, Vicki Lin Kinnison-Corley, and his father, Donald Charlton Corley, Sr. He was a proud father to his children, Weyman Corley, Tyson Kinnison (Kim), and Ryan Kinnison (Ashley), and a cherished grandfather to Mady Ferger, Taj Kinnison, Emilee Kinnison, and Riverlea Corley. His family also includes his sister, Caylon West (Paul David) and their daughter Anna Layne West, numerous nieces and nephews, brothers-in-law James Steinke, Roger Steinke, and Randy Steinke, and dear family friend Beverly Reynolds and mother in law Virginia Steinke. Chad also so loved his beloved fur babies, Hanna, Ripaa, and Aubee.
Chad had an adventurous spirit, finding joy in the great outdoors, fishing, and traveling in his RV. He was an avid gun collector and loved spoiling his grandchildren. Always available to lend a hand or an ear for a friend, Chad's presence will be deeply missed.
A Celebration of Life will be held at a later date to honor his legacy.
