Chad Corbett Bristow

Chad Corbett Bristow, age 47, passed away on Saturday, January 31, 2026 after a courageous and lengthy battle with kidney cancer. He was born on October 3, 1978 in Oklahoma City, OK to Harold and Jane Bristow.  He was raised in Yukon, OK and graduated from Mustang High School in 1997. Always a hard worker, he started his own tile company, Legacy Flooring.

Chad enjoyed watching and playing sports. From the basketball court to the bowling alley to the golf course, Chad excelled at everything he played. As a skilled and avid golfer all his life, Chad had many amazing rounds.  After countless close calls, he finally recorded a hole in one at his local golf course Surrey Hills in 2018.

Chad was a loving husband and devoted father, son, brother, uncle, and friend. He lived his life rooted in love for his family.  He also had a large circle of friends that lovingly referred to him as "Hoot." When he wasn't cheering on his kids at their many events and activities, you could find him watching a documentary on the history channel or rooting on his beloved Pittsburgh Steelers and the OKC Thunder.
