Deb I don't know if you remember me or not I use to train with Chaz many years ago. It has been some time since I have talked to Chip or seen him but learning of his passing was very hard to believe. Chip was a good friend and and always got the most out of you. He could always make you smile on bad days. May god bless you and your family.

I had the opportunity to meet Mr. Widdis during his technology support work at Unisys. He was very reliable and resolved some complicated hardware problems. Everyone looked forward to his service calls for his skills and ever-present affability.
Recalling his first service appointments to our office and then months later, his fitness achievement was nothing short of awe-inspiring. His hard work aptly placed him in show at his very first event.
I had taken to the gym...

Deb, I'm sorry that it took me so long to write. I was shocked when I heard the news. My heart goes out to you. I hope you can find comfort and support from loving family and friends. I remember you fondly as one of the first people that I met at First Data. You were always one of the nicest people to be around - you have a positive outlook on life. May that carry you through now.

Deb,
I am in complete shock. I am so sorry. I just found out tonight and cannot believe any of this. You and I have both had some extremely hard times. I am praying for you and the kids to get through this and you can be strong for them. Life really sucks sometimes. I do not understand the reasons as to why things like this happen. Please call me. Your cell number was in my old phone. My cell is: 239.938.5691. Love you. Please be strong. I am so sorry.

Deb, Haley and Nolan,
I wanted to add to all of the wonderful expressions of love and sympathy that you have received. I thought I would wait until a later time so that I would not feel the pain so deeply....that isn't going to happen anytime soon, I fear! You all know how I loved Chip as a son and friend. It was a level of caring and devotion that is between friend and family. A relationship that I treasure but do not feel that I have totally lost. Knowing that you, Deb and your...
