Haddad, who was captain of the famed Chanticleer for Ralph Evinrude and Frances Langford for over 50 years, passed away on Christmas Eve in Treasure Coast Hospice in Stuart.
"He was a man of amazing spirit and he applied a work ethic that was unparalleled," said Bruce Wallace a neighbor of Haddad for 32 years. "He had so many wonderful life experiences as captain of the old and the new Chanticleer. He sailed the Atlantic Ocean and went into the Mediterranean Sea. He rubbed elbows with the rich and famous but none of it he took for granted. He was just a fine likeable man who loved his family."
