Chase graduated from Bishop Carroll Catholic High School and immediately enlisted in the Navy. He graduated Boot Camp second in his class with Honors, and then continued to graduate Hospital Corpsman School with honors and in the top ten percent. He was initially stationed at Walter Reed Memorial Hospital, until recently moving to Naval Hospital Twentynine Palms for his next duty station. He was applying for Navy SEAL training in August.
Chase had a way of impacting lives for the better, both directly and indirectly, by always striving to be the best version of himself. Whether it was rock climbing, pursuing his calling to be a Navy SEAL, mentoring others on health and fitness journeys, or driving halfway across the country overnight to support a loved one, his passion and loyalty were unwavering. He was driven by his deep faith, personal convictions, sense of integrity, and sacrificial nature. Chase’s humility and selflessness will leave a legacy for his loved ones to cherish. May he rest in the peace which he fought to preserve for others.

Chase and I had weights class together in junior and senior year of high school. Senior year is when we became closer friends, and we talked at the end of every lifting session.
During Paige & Nolans bachelor/bachelorette trip, chase and I had a long conversation that had to have lasted at least an hour and a half. I basically dumped everything that had happened the past year. He was enthusiastic and engaged in all the stuff I was rambling about. He gave me his thoughts and advice on something in particular, and it brought me a lot of peace.
Later that night, we talked even more, and I was really grateful that he wanted to have these in-depth talks. I have so much love for him. Truly one of the best men I’ve ever known, and 100% one of my absolute favorites. He brought joy whenever he was around, and that truly is a quality of someone who has a relationship with God.
As Chase told me, whenever you are worrying and hyperfocusing on one thing, almost like tunnel vision, look at the bigger picture. In that case, he wanted me to turn around and look at the massive river behind me🤣🤣
Fair winds and following seas sailor. “Boatswain… Standby to pipe the side… Shipmate’s going Ashore…” Thank you Chase for your service to this nation. U.S. Navy.
A tragically short life, and my sympathies to to Chase’s family, friends and loved ones.
I don’t know Chase, but his grandma knew him. Karen as my best friend through my growing up years. Her grandchildren mean the world to her. They light her up when she talks about them to me. She loves ❤️ Chase very much!
I went to TEC with chase and I felt like we got closer when we went. But towards the end I remember I went up first to get my necklace and then after you give another one necklace to someone else and then you talk about something great about them. I looked at chase at and since it was our first time, he come up and told him I’m glad how we both went to this TEC retreat and this guy was a cool individual that I was grateful to have met him.Gave each other a hug and everyone clapped and it was a nice wholesome moment. I did mange to find some picture from that time back in 2018.
