Not sure what to say?

When I told my grandfather (Irvin Macy) that I was going to work in bldg. 3, he told me to be sure and look up Chism. He said Chis was a really good fisherman. That was the start of a long and rewarding relationship. Chis introduced me to another fisherman by the name of George Brockman. The memories I have of those two guys keeps me smiling (and laughing) to this day. And I still catch plenty of fish doing the things they taught me to do. I will always cherish the time I spent with Meredith.

Chis was the best mentor, I honor him by being a good mentor myself. All my grandchildren know about goesintos and goesontos. My most cherished tool is a step micrometer he invented and made. I'll never forget.
