Oh, our little Chasea, our little fighter, our queen. You have been the center of our lives. We revolved around you like a merry-go-round and rode with you each step of the way. Our lives will never be the same without you. In our minds we see your smile. In your eyes we see your voice. In our hearts we feel you laugh. How life will be without you, we cannot begin to comprehend. There is not one soul you met that you did not touch. You fought the fight, you have won the race. Now smile with Jesus, our little Chasers. Run in the fields, sing out loud, twirl and dance, taste the snowflakes and feel the grass. Play music with your Grandpa in your mansion above, and in the blink of an eye, we will be with you sweet Chasea. VISITATION:5:30 p.m. until the 6:30 p.m. funeral service Thursday in the Esko Apostolic Lutheran Church, 25 Church Road, Esko. Burial at the Church Cemetery.
