Dear Pat, John, Carolyn, and family,
Lucy and I want to express our deepest sympathy and sincere condolences on the loss of Chet.
We knew Chet for more than 25 years, and we always enjoyed being in his presence. We had some great conversations about the Yanks and the Knicks. His knowledge of basketball was exceptional.
He was a decent person, and I was glad I had the opportunity to know him.
