Marion and Chet were friends with my parents Theresa (Sue) and the late Chester (Bingo) Binkowski from Chicago and then friends with me and my children when we moved to Tucson from Chicago. My children Megan, T.J. and Kyle loved visiting their house because Marion was always in a happy mood and had to make us good food Chet would show the boys fishing items and we loved being at their beautiful home with such a great view of the city. When my mom was in from Chicago they showed her some of the Tucson sites and also had a wonderful time being together.
