    A unique soul who made people laugh and made people think, and if those aren't two of the most important parts of life I don't know what are.

    Some people, you just think are immortal until the universe cruelly exposes your folly   

    @rollings , please don’t hesitate to reach out if you or anyone else who loved or was beloved by this amazing and terribly missed soul needs anything at all. 

    RIP, Chadwick. On you sweep with threshing oar, brother.

    Fuck!  Like many, I only knew him here but I loved that guy!  His posts brought so much laughter over the years; the forum will certainly miss his inherent wisdom, humor, and heart.  Donation made.

    This makes me sad. My deepest condolences to Rollings and Chadwick's family. I am so sorry for your loss.
    Please, Pearl Jam, consider a Benaroya Hall vinyl reissue!

    I'm sure he had some wise words for me, I can't remember as I have not seen him on here much lately and it's been so long since we interacted. 
    I'd like to dig through the archives to see what I can find.

    Thank you everyone for your kindness.

    Chad was the one I would turn to when I felt this bad.

    For as lost as I am right now, coming here  and reading what everyone has written makes me feel good, thank you

    I've not been on here for a very long time, but I did enjoy chatting with Chadwick back when I did come on here, I think I sent a few things for his PJ wall, a t-shirt, a ticket from a PJ show and I k ow I have a (or maybe 2) book of his somewhere, I have the urge to find it now.

    This is such sad news!

    He had so many friends here; so many of us with whom he was our friend, and us his.  "Friend" - a term I think neither he nor I used loosely.  We shared some great conversations over the years, and his love for you was immeasurable and huge, like the man himself.

    I found him valiant, pure, honest, and incredibly soulful.  I'm so fucking sorry his physical life is no more.

    Much love to you, Diane.  Let us shoulder what we can.

    Fare thee well, dear friend
    Fare thee well, dear brother

    So sad to hear this...there was a time that Sir Chadwicks musings and poetry floated me out of despair and egged me on  to engage with life on a level I had never tried for..he encouraged one to look at tragedy and joy straight in the third eye...to this day a flock of birds  always has a Chadwick spirit and lifts a song to the great beyond...my heart weeps and yet is lifted  by the wondering words that he shared...    so thankful to have met him on these boards...R.I.P

    Chadwick alone could provide the proper words for the untimely passing of someone like Chadwick.

    I don't know what I'm going to do yet, but I'm going to do something weird and manly in his honor.
    Maybe eat a banana with the peel on or chop down a fallen tree just to feel the axe bite...
    I will try to remember you anytime I use a bladed tool, big guy, and I will give myself some shame every time I trim my beard.

    RIP good sir.

    I regret to inform you of the passing of our resident Mad Poet King Chadwick. He was found unresponsive in the kitchen of his mothers house in Iowa Tuesday afternoon.

    He had been there for several months now caring for his dying mother during her final bout with cancer.

    An autopsy will be preformed to determine cause but  its thought at this early stage to be from a massive heart attack or an aneurysm.

    Details on services to follow. in lieu of flowers,  consider a donation to a cause or causes as yet to be determined.

    Thoughts and prayers to his mother and to @rollings and her boys are appreciated.



    this news is a real kick in the balls and full of piss and shit. yes/no?

    Services details to come...

    in lieu of flowers donations to Autism Speaks are welcomed and can be done here in his name.

    Donation made, thanks for the info, Mickey. 

    I couldn't fill in all the info they wanted to personalized in Chad's name, Rollings, but know that's where my heart is at.  I wish there was more I could do.  But I do sent out love and good thoughts.

    This is horrible. Chad was always one of my favorites on this board and the others that predated it. His combination of wisdom, humor, weirdness and kindness were always apparent. I always looked forward to whatever he had to say and I will miss him. 

    So sorry for your loss

    I had to come back here when I heard about this.  Chad was a legend and at one of the most miserable times of my life, he used to cheer me up by kicking my ass and truth blasting me.  His poetry, which I have the pleasure of reading, was beautiful and really spoke to me.  There was and will be only one Chad and i'm sure he knew that.  RIP my singular friend.

    I've not posted here in...  a long time.  In ways it was because it had reminded me of things... friends that I had lost due to... life.  

    I recently came back and lurked .. just last week to look over old threads to see if any of my "friends" were still active on this board.  

    I came across so many shared messages from Sir Chadwick and myself. Comenting on one anothers poetry and such.  It made me long for the "good ol days" of when this message board was in its "prime".   A lot of those feelings were due to him. 

    I'm sorry I didnt just post to Express that to him.  

    He was one of the good guys.  His presence on this spinning rock will be missed.

    @rollings...   I have no words.  I am sorry for your loss.  If there is anything....   please reach out.  

    Peace, love.  

    -Steve

    I hadn't interacted with him in some time. he used to be a regular AMTer but then I think moved on to AET. He always made me laugh (except the one time he told me he was going to drive his truck through the front of my house). He was a good and kind soul, you could just tell. 

    Half the time I never knew what he was talking about, but it also didn't matter. HE knew. 

    I had no idea he and rollings were in a relationship. My sincere condolences to you.
