Chaz, You were always full of laughter, and as loud as I am. I learned alot from you throughout the years, especially when I was a new Gypsie. You have always been a brother I looked up too, and enjoyed every time we were able to spend together. I want to give my deepest sympathy to Marie, who was definitely your soul mate. I had such a difficult time seeing you go through your ordeal, and as much as I know you are at piece Chaz, you left us too early, and there is a void in our lives. You will forever be in our hearts, and as much as Lisa was only with me for the last 5 years, you made her feel very welcome to our club family. Your heart for our club goes way beyond words. I will miss you being around us, but I know your spirit will be with us. I love you my Brother! GFFG!!
