Remembering Chad
I was working on some updates to the site when I saw the "Birthdays" on FW Central and saw "CDupree." It's hard to believe it's been over three years since Chad Dupree was taken from us.
The innovator of the "HORNET WINS~~!!" comment (and inside dig at me), Chad was a CSWA member, co-founder of GXW way back in 1997. He was a great handler and fedhead, but those who knew him best just cared that he was an even better friend. His legacy has been carried on in EPW and TEAM remembers him with a memorial tournament every year. I think he'd be thrilled about both.
There are plenty of people who could tell you about Chad better than I could. Zieba, Brunk, Bolich, Lindz, Mad Dog, etc. Everyone of them would tell you how kind Chad was -- how funny, how caring and concerned for others. A few of the thoughts that were posted on the board after we all learned of his passing are here if you'd like to see them.
I've got a smile on my face thinking about him. And I expect he probably does too, likely thinking how fitting it is that I make one more "return" on his birthday.
We miss you, Chad. Keep a table open for us all when we get there.
-Chad (Merritt)
