CHASE RILEY Obituary

CHASE CAMERON RILEY
Sunday, July 17, 2011 marked the day an angel was received into heaven, Chase Cameron Riley.
Although, his life was cut short, at the age of 20, the impressions he left on everyone's lives were nothing short of greatness. Born, February 1, 1991, Chase graduated from Sharyland High School in 2009, and went on to attend Texas Tech on a pole vaulting scholarship. He was currently residing in New Braunfels while attending college in San Antonio, and would have been a junior in the fall.
He enjoyed fishing and woodworking as hobbies.
Those who remain and have wonderful memories of him are his parents, Gene and Robbie Riley; girlfriend, Nicole Poiriez; sisters, Jennifer (Jerry) Garcia, Michelle Johnson; brothers, Cody (Christina) Smith, Matt (Ryan) Smith, James (Connie) Riley, Will (Jana) Smith; and numerous nieces and nephews.
Friends who wish, may make memorial contributions to the RGV Pole Vaulting Club by contacting Mr. Gonzalez at 956-994-1238.
