I was so sorry to hear of Chet´s passing. I lived across the street from him on Poplar, for 10 years. He and Ann were the nicest, most welcoming neighbors we could have ever asked for. They were also an extra set of eagle eyes on my 3 young boys! I know how much he and Ann adored each other so I take comfort in knowing that they are together again. My condolences to the entire family.
