Charles Walton "Chick" Brashears

having spent most of my life as a professional fishing Captain, I was certainly aware of Chick's fishing prowess. There just weren't any better in the chair than Chick. To say he had a big heart would be an understatement in the face of the

Hilary and I were so sorry to learn of Chick's death, you and the family are very much in our thoughts and prayers at this time. In my last conversation with Chick, he wished us good luck with our move, and now we can wish him the same good luck with his move.

Love,

Peter and Hilary Tyor

I was privileged to work for and with
three generations of the Brashears
family. The father and both sons
gave me opportunities and promotions that brought comfort to my family. Charles Brashears had the respect and loyalty of both the
staff of The Drake OakBrook and the

My heart is filled with prayers of sympathy for his wife and children and grand children.
