Gary "Chico" TSCHIDA

I have not forgot you Gary. You were very special to me. I enjoyed our time together eating at Burger King. A lot has happened since you passed away. I lost my best friend on 1/7/20 ovarian cancer. My wife Linda who also had worked at the police dept as a secretary in the Burglary unit also know how much you meant to me. I would walk out the door and say, I´m having lunch with Chico today. Linda would say have fun. Seems like a short time has past. Memories last forever.

That time of the year again. I have not forgot you. You were very special to me. You had many friends on the St Paul and Fire dept. everybody knew who you were. Nobody had a bad thing to say about you. You touch many lives. You had a purpose which all of us were happy to protect and serve. You mourned like the rest rest of us when we lost 1 of our own. You were family.

I have not forgotten you Chico. I miss our special time together. It was a pleasure to have hung out with you and do lunch. You are one of those special people who I will always remember. Thanks for being in my life. Say hi to my other best friend Linda who went to heaven on Jan 7th 2020. I will see you both in paradise when it is my time.

Just heard about Chico,s passing. On my days off from time to time I picked Chico up and took him to lunch and hung out with him. Of course we went to Burger King which was ok with me. Who don´t like to eat whoppers. Gary was the real deal. Who wouldn´t want to hang out with a guy like this. God created a special person. The perfect innocent and decent guy on the planet. Thank you Gary for being my special friend and the special times together that we shared. I will remember you always. Rennie
