Many people have sent their condolences, including Mike Fury, Sean Kanan, and TV personality Hector Navarro.
A excerpt of actor John Hurwitz’s X post read, “Unfortunately, Chad was unable to join us when it came time to shoot. At the end of the day, it wasn’t meant to be.

The fandom mourns a Karate Kid legend today. I’m so grateful I had the honor of spending an afternoon with him. Sending much love and strength to his wonderful family. May Chad rest in peace.”

Caught the racing bug, studied martial arts, acted (but no cash-ins on his father’s work). Honoured the legacy while doing it his way.”
