Chester was my second cousin once removed. His grandfather was my great uncle, brother to my great grandmother. I never met Chester, but I do wish his close family much comfort.

Chester was such a loving soul and will not ever be replaced in my heart. I will always miss him and I will treasure all the happy memories of spending time with him and Eleanor. He was a good friend whose name will remain sacred in my thoughts even without a chance to say goodbye. Perhaps it is best that way because I will never really say goodbye to him as he will be kept alive in my heart for all eternity. I love you Chester, now and forever.
