Chad Valentine Obituary

Chad M. Valentine

Chad M. Valentine, 52, of Arcadia, entered into the presence of the Lord Friday, April 11, 2025. He was born December 26, 1972, to Stanley E. Valentine and the late Terry L. Valentine. He is survived by his fiancé, Lindsay Conine-Hosey; her son, Jake Hosey; his two cats, Hazel and Emmett; his sisters, Angela Decker, Aubrey Valentine (Chris Fisher), and Jessica Delong (Austin Delong); and brother, Jacob Cramer.

Chad had a rare gift for making others smile and laugh, leaving a lasting impact on all who crossed his path. He had very strong values and was well-liked by everyone, primarily due to his positive energy. Services will be private, and a memorial will be at a later date.
