Despite the years, I still hold Chester and Margaret dear in my heart. What an incredible pair! What they did in the Congo is like what Billy Graham did in the US.... influence a whole society. Improved thousands of lives. Brought people to God. We need more people, more peacemakers like them. Blessed are the peacemakers.

I still think of the Jumps. They changed my life because they renewed my faith. Chet and Margaret are full of grace. The holy Spirit runs through them. I hope I can pass some of it to others, as they did to me. Love.

My husband and I spent many evenings with Chet while following Coatesville basketball. He taught me to keep score and still do. What a wonderful Christian man. I know he changed many lives over the years.

The world has lost a wonderful person. Chet was a true ambassador for Christ. Blessed are the peacemakers. He left the world a better place. His kindness overflowed. He touched my life. He touched the lives of thousands.
