Obituary of Chad Michael Leopard, 40

Chad Michael Leopard.
– Born January 10, 1985, to Steve and Laurie Leopard in Anaheim, California, and passed away on July 7, 2025, in Big Sur, California.
Chad is survived by his Grandmother Phyllis Huntley, Mother and Step-Father Laurie and Tommy Lahr. His Father and Step-Mother Steve and Deborah Leopard. His brothers and sister in-laws Jeff and Lisa Leopard, Travis and Cate Leopard. As well as his two children Asher and Addison and their mother Stephanie Leopard. Also, many cousins and nieces and nephews.
Chad loved his kiddos Asher and Addie more than anything in this world. From watching Asher play his many sports and cheering from the sidelines to the many adventures he’d take the kiddos on from the Santa Cruz Boardwalk, camping, beach days to hikes all along the Central Coast. His time with his children was his favorite.
In nature is where Chad found peace and solace. From fishing to scaling the toughest trails along the ocean’s edge was where he could always be found.
Chad worked for Ferris Fencing and took great pride in managing his team and providing quality work for the company’s customers.
Chad will be greatly missed by all those who loved him.
Celebration of Life Details will be shared with immediate family and close friends.
