Chad Dahl

Chad Michael Dahl died unexpectedly in his home in Morganton, North Carolina on September 23, 2024. He was 49. Chad had a passion for cuisine, animals and the poetic verse. He owned a restaurant with his mom, Jeanne, in Scottsdale, AZ and his culinary path continued in North Carolina. Chad loved his dogs and disliked being apart from them. His poems moved many people whom were fortunate enough to read them. He shared his big heart, laughter, story telling and quick wit with those he loved – often for hours on the phone.

Chad’s mom, sister and nephew were fortunate enough to spend his last days with him in Ireland where they explored and laughed together. They will always have this precious time together.

Chad leaves behind his parents, Jeanne Dahl and Ken Dahl, stepmother Kathy Dahl, sisters Tina Guthrie and Tracy Hanson, nephews Connor and Alex Guthrie, Nieces Cassie Gemuenden and Rachael Hanson along with many aunts, uncles and cousins.

Chad was preceded in death by his brother-in-law, Monty Guthrie.

As Chad said in his poem, “our hearts will heal but today we are still full of tears.”

Memorials preferred to Best Friends Animal Society or a charity of your choosing.
