Chad Stevens

It is with deep sadness that we announce the passing of Chadwick Nathanial Stevens on July 19, 2026. He was 36 years old.

Chad was a beloved son, brother, uncle, family member, and friend whose intelligence, humor, generosity, and adventurous spirit touched countless lives. Born on July 19, 1990, Chad was the cherished son of Kathy and Donald Stevens and a devoted brother whose love for his family was evident throughout his life.

Chad approached life with curiosity, determination, and a sense of adventure. He loved the outdoors and could often be found hiking, rock climbing, traveling, exploring new places, or sharing his latest passion with family and friends. He was known for his quick wit, thoughtful nature, and ability to make people laugh. Whether through his legendary gift-giving, personalized cards, spirited debates, or practical jokes, Chad had a unique way of making every gathering more memorable.

He was also the person everyone called when something needed fixing. Chad could seemingly solve any problem, repair any gadget, and always found a way to help those he loved. More importantly, he made people feel cared for, supported, and special.

Chad deeply loved his family and treasured the time spent together. He found great joy in creating memories for his nieces and nephews, sharing adventures, games, laughter, and experiences they will carry with them forever.

He is survived by his parents, Kathy and Donald Stevens; his sister, Nichole DeJulio, and her husband, David DeJulio; his sister, Anna Stevens Hoffie, and her husband, Michael Hoffie; his brother, Timothy Stevens; his beloved niece and nephews: Kayla DeJulio, James DeJulio, Bennett Hoffie, and Walker Hoffie; and many extended family members and dear friends.

Though our hearts are broken, we are grateful for the love, laughter, and countless memories Chad gave us. He will be deeply missed and forever remembered for his generous heart, adventurous spirit, and the joy he brought to everyone fortunate enough to know him.
