Obituary

Chad Kenyon Lewis passed away at his home in Clearfield, Kentucky, on Saturday, December 12, 2020. He was born in Morehead, Kentucky, and was the son of Darrell Kenyon and Adora Jean "Jeannie" Lewis of Morehead.

He was preceded in death by his mother, maternal grandparents, Charles Miller and Deloris "Mamaw Dottie" Durham, paternal grandparents, Carlos Kenyon and Edith Logan Lewis, uncle, Timothy "Uncle T" Durham, all of Morehead, and uncle, Chuck Wilson of Floral City, Florida.

Chad is survived by his two children, Cody Anthony Kenyon Lewis (Mackenzie) and Adora Brooke Lewis; father and stepmother, Darrell Lewis (Barb); sister and brother-in-law, Darah Pope (Shaun); the mother of his children, Terri Dye; and his ex-wife and stepdaughter, Amy and Amber Kelley, all of Morehead.

He is also survived by aunts, Deborah "Aunt Debbie" Flanery and Donna Sue Lewis, both of Morehead, Patricia Wilson and Anna Lee "Danny" Green (Lee) of Floral City, Florida; uncles, Robbie Durham (Debbie) and Mike Lewis, both of Morehead and Billy Lewis of Lexington, as well as numerous cousins, nieces, nephews, and extended family. He also leaves behind a special friend, Bonnie Haygarth of Jacksboro, Tennessee.

Chad graduated from Rowan County Senior High School, enlisted in the Marines, and later attended Morehead State University. Early in his career, he worked at Advance Auto Parts, then became an EMT and later trained and advanced to Paramedic, where he worked in Elliott, Morgan, Powell, Bracken and Rowan counties, and also worked as a central sterile technician at U.K. Hospital.  He also served as a volunteer firefighter at Farmers Volunteer Fire Department. Most recently, Chad worked for Southern Home Renovations in Morehead and was currently employed at Lowe's in Mt. Sterling.

Chad loved being outdoors and thoroughly enjoyed kayaking and fishing, as well as being out on the lake, boating, swimming, and tubing.  He loved going to haunted houses and haunted trails during the Halloween season. He enjoyed reading Dan Brown and Stephen King books, as well as watching movies and listening to music.  In his childhood and adolescent years, Chad played baseball, and later coached soccer and baseball, where he made many lifelong friends and brothers.  And he really loved Steelers' football. But most of all, Chad loved his kids and family, and loved spending time with them.

He was the type of man that would help anyone that needed it, no matter the time of day or night, and would give someone the shirt off his back if they needed it.  He had a big heart, a bigger laugh, and a contagious smile. Anyone and everyone who knew him, enjoyed working with him, or just being around him, were lucky to have known him.  He was a loving son, brother, and father who will be greatly missed and lovingly remembered.
