I never had the chance to know Chester, but his final act as a pilot saved my family. He died a hero. We are forever grateful and will never forget him. With love and deepest sympathy to his family.

We lost a good man.
We were not close friends, nor did I know him that well.
But you didn't need to.
His warm and generous personality and his sense of humor will be missed.

My sympathies to all who knew him. I met Chester in person once when he flew to Scott Air Force Base to pick up uniforms for Civil Air Patrol cadets. He is a good man. Loves Civil Air Patrol. Loves his country, the United States of America.
