Uncle Chet, I will remember you fondly. I will always treasure my wonderful childhood memories of time spent with you and Aunt Pauline on the farm. You were such a caring and loving uncle, hard working, honest and down to earth. You worked so tirelessly for everyone and never expected anything in return. I will always admire that quality in you. Be at peace now and enjoy all of eternity with your beautiful wife! Love your niece, Karen
