Scott, Chuck, Rob...I have been thinking of you all since hearing the news. What a wonderful man, your father...and a wonderful life he lived! Take care of each other and be well.

So many funny Chester stories, but my favorite was when we were riding around in the pontoon and saw a sign that said Beware of Shoaling. Chet hollered, What the heck is shoaling'? And seconds later, we found out the hard way that it meant getting stuck in a sandbar. We had an adventure that day and learned a new word! Chester will be missed, and his many funny stories told and retold forever.
