So sorry to hear about Chick's passing. I grew up on 5th Ave. and helped Chick with his paper route. We were friends all through our bike riding years and have stories. Served with him too in the National Guard. You are in my prayers. May your hearts soon be filled too with the best of your memories of your times together.
