So sorry to hear about Chick's passing. I didn't know him well but had met him a few times over the years. My Sister Mary was married to Mike Hawkins so over the years I had a chance to meet Chick. He was a good man. So sorry to all of you for your loss.

Karolyn, Chick was a hero of mine back in our High School day. I am so sorry for your loss. Thanks to the Lord plan of salvation we understand this is all part of the process. Chick is in a much better place and is again healthy, but the hurt is with those left behind, because he will be missed.
