It is with great sadness that I have to tell you that we have lost a great friend Chad Holm. He had an unexpected heart attack last night. If you have ever met Chad you know what kind of a guy he was. Great Bower, person and friend. My thoughts and prays go out to Amy and the family.

My condolences to his family and friends.  Only recently started talking to him about hog hunting in Oklahoma with him.  This is definitely a shock and a loss for all that knew him.

Dang it, sorry to hear this. Never met Chad but from everything I’ve heard he was an outstanding man and bowyer.
Praying for peace for all his family and friends!!

Very shocking. My father in law passed away last year from a totally unexpected heart attack. We never know how long we have. I never had the pleasure to meet chad, but from following his social media it seemed he was a man who had his priorities straight. My condolences and prayers for family and friends.

I’m heartbroken, a friend and bowyer of the greatest talent. One of the few people in this world that actually valued my opinion !! I have a whole bunch of his bows a knowing I can never get another or talk to him again makes me so sad. The tears a streaming down my face. May he Rest In Peace, way to young to pass.
