For those who did t know him, he was a great guy. A few years back, he was diagnosed with a cancer (I'm not sure what kind) and had a volleyball sized tumor removed from his stomach. Chip was a big dude when I met him. In less than 6 months, (in the past few years) whip did everything possible to regain his health and lost an extraordinary amount of weight and against all odds birthed a beautiful baby girl with his wife. He has had a clean bill of health for the past several years. According to his wife, he was admitted to the hospital severely ill early his morning, and by this afternoon he had left this earth. When I posted earlier, I had just found out minutes before about his passing. I've sense been able to compose my thoughts and think more clearly. This really was an amazing dude, and will be missed by many many different circles of friendships.
Again bro. RIP. you will forever be loved and missed by both family and friends.
