To all of Chaw´s children and family members I am very sorry to hear the news of his passing. What a class act gentleman and great friend to anyone who had the pleasure of knowing him. I have known him for over 60 years and like anyone who knew him you all will have some great memories to last you for life. He taught me and my late wife Roberta how to play bocce but he didn´t teach us how to beat him. I played golf with him and never beat him at that either. I really didn´t have to win it was just fun times to be able to play with or against him. I will keep you all in my thoughts and prayers. RIP my friend Chaw until we meet again on the other side.
