Barb - Just found out about this. I remember all the great times Chip and the Maynard Drive crew had from junior high on. Especially all the years at the Radnor Hunt - great memories. He is missed.

Dear Barbara- So many memories, so many laughs, so much love. That´s how I remember Chip. From PAFA to the Seaport Museum - he and I shared the successes, the failures, and (sometimes) the anguish. I was proud to know him and think of him as a friend. My thoughts are with you and the boys. With love, Melissa

So sad to see this. Martha and I have such vivid and beautiful memories of hanging with Chip on Rodman St. Lots of laughter. Our daughter's in Portland. We'd love to get in touch.
