Memories and Condolences
for Jeffrey Chanin

Not sure what to say?





…because time and unexpected events overtake them all. For man does not know his time. Just as fish are caught in an evil net and birds are caught in a trap, so the sons of men are ensnared in a time of disaster, when it suddenly overtakes them (Eccl. 9:11,12). The hope is your families and friends trust the God of comfort in these tragic times. We continue to pray for the lost of you and yours.

Such a shock. I will always remember joining you and your brother & sisters in Kismet for KY Derby and the fun Paula and I had with all of you. May the love that surrounds the Chanin family carry them through this most difficult time.

When I had my last vicious asthma attack at work, Jeff, an armed guard at my job, was the person that stayed with me. Never left me until I got in the ambulance. I was doing everything in my power to make sure I did not pass out. His voice was what I clung to. He did more than what was expected and I will be forever thankful. I used to call him my "Asthma Angel". Soft spoke guy with a heart of gold. Jeff Chanin will most certainly be missed...
REST IN PEACE JEFF!!
