Chad Robert Flick
PUTNAM — Chad Flick, 22, of Putnam, passed away unexpectedly after a fall at home on May 3, 2026. Born on June 11, 2003, Chad lived a life filled with creativity, humor, and love.
Chad was known for his funny, creative spirit and his heart of gold. Anyone who had the chance to know Chad couldn’t help but love him, and so many would say he was such a good kid. He had a way of bringing light and laughter to those around him, and he deeply valued the people he loved.
He had a passion for photography and enjoyed making YouTube videos, capturing moments and expressing his creativity. Chad also loved wrestling, NASCAR, and spending time with his family—who meant everything to him. He worked at CMAA Auto Auction, where he loved his job and was loved in return.
He leaves his father, Ralph Flick; his fiancée, Paige Dziembowski; his sister, Amanda Mimande (Jacob); his sister, Tanya Paquin (Matthew); one nephew, four nieces, and extended family members and friends.
Chad’s life was far too short, but the impact he made and the love he gave will never be forgotten.
As Chad would say, “Stay Chillin.”
Visitation is from 6 to 7 p.m. May 9 at Gilman Funeral Home, 104 Church St., Putnam. Donations: PAWS Cat Shelter, 74 School St., Putnam, CT 06260.
