Dear Chip;



I just recently learned of your dad's passing. I have so many fond memories of you and your family; particularly of your father. I will always remember his genuine

charm and grace and that infectious smile of his. You and Christy were so very lucky to have had him in your lives for as long as you did.



Although I feel a certain sadness in his passing; I would rather celebrate your dad's life with you, your family and all of us who knew and admired him so much.



Please give your mom a big loving hug from me.



Your old friend, Greg
