Chester was my second cousin. As a child, I recall him as a gentle giant. I loved snuggling into his big chest. He always had a smile and a hug for me. As an adult, I enjoyed receiving his letters and cards sent to me here in Nevada from Minnesota. The times I did see him as an adult brought fond memories back to me of his kindness to me as a child and the kindness and respect he always showed to my mother. I will remember him always as the gentle giant of the family. I will miss his spirit. La Vonne
