Not sure what to say?

A good friend and coworker on the WBlmFld PD during `60´s & `70´s. Truly missed and always remembered.

Rosemary it doesn't seem like he has been gone for five years now. I lost my wife Miranda on July 18, 2020. I love and miss her so much.

Chum was a great guy. We worked on the West Bloomfield Police Dept. together. There was a TV show called Cousin Cyrus.He could make his hat go one way and his head the opposite. Both are kids watched the show. Chum was the only guy I knew that could do the same thing. Rest in Peace my friend.

A lot of good times, good work, and good friendship with Chum in the West Bloomfield PD days !

Chum also worked for the West Bloomfield Police Department in the late '60's and '70's. He was a great partner and off duty friend who I've never forgotten and have missed seeing over the years. Be in peace Brother.

I just heard the news about Chum today. I am so sorry to hear this. Chum and Rosemary were our neighbors for many years over at Creekside Villas. My husband and I still kept in touch with Christmas cards every year. Our 2 boys loved Chum so much. He will truly be missed.

I only heard of Chummie's passing today (9/14). He was a dear friend and colleague.I'll always remember his compassion and humor. He always began phone calls with, "Hey, Lou!"...everyone at work was Lou...go figure?
We shared a number of good and bad times at Perry Correctional. I deeply respected his compassion for others.
I will really miss him and look forward to seeing "the Chimmie Chumster/the Humpy Dumpster" again someday.

Even though I didn't know Chum that long, I considered him to be a good friend. He always had a smile on his even if he were not feeling well. He will be missed greatly by a lot of people.

My buddy, my friend.

I worked with Chum for quite a few years. We did our job, but at the same time we had fun and laughs, and we made the best of some not so good times. I will always miss my great friend.
