Pam,
I was so sorry to hear about Chip.
Although I had not seen him in years
I would think about him periodically and wonder how and what he was
doing.
Please know that you and your family are in my thoughts and prayers.
Your Cousin,
Laura ♥️

Very sad news indeed! My prayers go out to his family. Chip was an exceptional leader in athletics while at Vero Beach high School. He quarterbacked the undefeated Indians his senior year. His confidence was very contagious to the rest of the team and was one of the driving forces in our quest to be undefeated. RIP Chip.

We in South Lake Tahoe knew him as “Chipper” He was quite the celebrity in Tahoe. We actually have a drink named after him called the Chip Shot. Tuaca & Baileys with a splash of Coffee. We were at a bartenders contest at the Tahoe Seasons bar and we got kicked out for dancing on the bar. Many many great memories were had with him. I was a Bartender at Carlos Murphy’s for 20 years and Chip and I had some great times together. In fact, I don’t believe the statute of limitations has gone from them yet. So here is to all the great memories we had and can never talk about.
