Im very sad to find out via Facebook that my year 6 school Teacher at Inala west state school Mr Dennis Chester passed away back in 2012. Mr Chester was my favourite teacher. He sang and played guitar in the class room. One song I still remember is a song called Dear Abbey. Mr Chester made me Captain of the Rugby League team when I was in year 7 at Inala West in Brisbane where I grew up. He was a Teacher who really impacted the students he taught.

Great Man, fabulous teacher and avid guitar player.He was my year 6 teacher and I still have great memories camping and singing by the campfire at Christmas Creek. He loved pens, bikes and watches... spoke pretty good Spanish as well :) Rest in Peace Mr.C
