Celebration of Chad Cleasby's Life

Donation protected
Chad Cleasby was born in 1972 in Eau Claire, WI to Thomas and  Pamela Cleasby (MacKnight) both from Eau Claire as well. Chad has a brother named Todd Cleasby now living in Buffalo, MN, with his wife Char and two sons, Eric and Zack. He also has two half-sisters on his father's side named Jessica and Nikki who also reside in Wisconsin. Raised in Wisconsin until he was 15, Chad then moved to Colorado and found his forever home. 


Chad quickly grew to love the off-road life and the vehicles that took him to explore the beautiful Colorado Rockies. Many who know and love him know of his love for taking the path least traveled. All with a huge smile on his face. Chad found a great love for the mechanic field working on a Chevette in the front of a duplex. As he told some: he had a "Vette". Adding the title of welder to his resume, he found himself working at Dynamic Metal Fabrication. He grew his skill over the years to being a four-wheel technical lead foreman and mechanic at Lil B's Automotive. 


The man that Chad became wrenched the heart from anyone that met him and anyone that he touched throughout his life. A trustworthy, honest, caring, and amazing person that he was, will live on through people's hearts forever. The "gentle giant" really was the perfect nickname for this man.


Chad has two daughters: Angela and Olivia. Angela Morrissey gave her father two beautiful granddaughters named Adalynd and Everleigh. Angela lives in Thornton, CO with her two daughters and her grandmother. Her daughter Adalynd knew Chad as Poppa and had an immense amount of love for him and loved to get her hands dirty with him at the shop. 


Olivia lives with her mother currently in Greeley, CO and is attending grade school. 



Jessica Lisle was Chad's current girlfriend of three years. "Last night I lost the love of my life, my best friend, my better half. The man I should have spent the rest of my life with. You will always be my babycakes!! Rest in peace my love, until we meet again. You are forever mine, and I am forever yours."
