Please accept my deepest condolences to you and your family. I was shocked to hear of his passing. We saw each other a few days earlier at our 50th reunion. I´m so happy I decided last minute to even go, because I had the opportunity to chat with him. You were a great friend. Rest in Peace Chip.

Alex, I just found out about your dad. He was a close friend in college and kept our group of friends motivated. I have many wonderful memories of him. He truly touched the lives of all those in our friend group.

I was deeply saddened to hear about your loss Alex. Please accept my heartfelt condolences during this difficult time. Chip was an awesome person. He is the reason I started the college funds for my kids. We shared good times and experiences talking about our favorite vacation spot in Istanbul. Chip never shied away from challenges, he would volunteer to take problems head-on and drive resolutions. We lost a great soul on 9/24/2024

To the Family, please accept my heartfelt condolences. I am so sorry to hear about your loss. I worked with Chip for a short time, but during that time he was very dependable, knowledgeable, and last but not the least very comical. Even during serious times, Chip would always interject with a joke or say something comical which would ease the tension in the room. (Much Needed) Wishing you strength during these difficult times and my thoughts and prayers are with you.

My deepest sympathies to Chip´s family. He seemed very upbeat about his future after retirement. It was good tp see Chip at our class reunion a couple weeks ago. We go back all the way to Pleasantdale School. I think Chip was in the smart classes. He always seemed like an easy-going, and likable guy.
Prayers for God´s help and comfort for you all in the coming days...

Even though we only worked together for a few years, you felt like a friend I've known my whole life. I enjoyed how our work calls turned to ramblings of life and you made me feel the joy and excitement to look forward to with my son as you told stories of Alex. I'm sure you have no doubts Alex, but your dad was damn proud of you and you should be proud of yourself and everything you accomplished. I'm so sorry you didn't get to enjoy retirement. You will be missed.
