I would like to extend condolences from the entire Watson family.  My sons Matt and Jeff played baseball at JP McCaskey at the same time. Even though we did not really know Chad personally, I just saw his name on the baseball site and immediately recognized it.  I simply wanted to send our prayers to your entire family.
