Jonathan Chance Crompton

It's been a very long time since I talked to Chance, but I considered him a friend when we were both at Mudd. I'll miss him dearly, and I'll always treasure the memories of school together. He was a bright, kind presence. My condolences to his family and loved ones.

When I first came out, Chance was a grad student that one of the Center for Diversity directors at Caltech recommended I reach out to, and Chance was somebody who showed me support as I became ready to accept myself for who I am. I hadn't been in contact with Chance since I graduated.
Tonight I remembered Chance and I wanted to reach out to him and let him know where my life had taken me, and how much better things were going since I focused on allowing myself to be happy and share...

I am so sorry to hear of Chance's passing and send condolences to the Crompton family. I will always remember him as one of the kindest people at Rowland Hall, and though we hadn't spoken in years, I know the world will miss his presence.

I've only known Chance a short while. But Chance Chance been so kind and supportive to me. We had fun, wonderful conversations together. He helped me out when I needed it. And I will never forget him. I hope you're at peace now.

As someone to be around at school, Chance was a genuinely fantastic and unique person. Sort of embodied by his pet bird from early on. I have many great memories about him. Very sorry to hear about what happened.

Karen, David and Hart, we are so so sorry. Alexander has such wonderful memories of Chance, and even though he was not in close contact, he still thought of him as his friend.

I'm so sorry.
Love to all of you.

Chance, you made a difference in my life and I will miss you. I remember weekly trips to Jay's place to spend remaining flex before it expired. I remember your help and support in classes as I struggled. I remember singing late at night. I looked up to you so much those couple of years, and I am so thankful I had a chance to share a meal with you a few times since. I wish the last time had been more recent.
