FERRIS, Chad Michael

FERRIS, Chad Michael

On May 28th, 2017, in Whitehorse, YT, a car accident claimed the life of our beloved Chad, at the young age of 32. He is deeply missed by his parents, Lee & Kathy Ferris of Kamloops, his sister Holly Ferris of Yellowknife, NT, the love of his life Maddi Kempf of Kelowna, and many cousins and other relatives near and far.

Chad was born on May 6, 1985 in Richmond, BC. He moved with his family to Kamloops in 1988. He graduated from Valleyview Secondary in 2003, and upon graduation pursued a career as a Red Seal Carpenter. This line of work often led to his being away from Kamloops for extended durations. Chad was renowned for living every moment to the fullest. He was known for his infectious laugh, kind smile, mischievous nature and welcoming energy. He was a natural in sports competing for many years as a goalie in hockey, completing his career at the Junior A level in Bonnyville, AB. Spending quality time with his adoring loved ones ranked very highly for him throughout his far-too-brief time among us.

A Celebration of Life for Chad's family and friends will be held this Saturday, June 10th, at the Sandman Centre Lounge, 300 Lorne St. in Kamloops, BC at 2pm. In lieu of flowers, memorial donations may be made to the ALS Society or a charity of your choice.

Please cherish your memories of Chad, and be inspired to live life as he did; laughing, smiling, and never wasting a single moment.
