There are not enough words in my vocabulary to tell you all what Chetter meant to me. He is my "other" Dad. There is not one thing that man would not have done for me or my family at any given moment. I just hope he knows how much he was and will remain in my heart until I see him again. I love you Chetter.

I worked with Chet at Montgomery Wards back in the day. He was a kind hearted man with a great laugh.
