Wayne and Ann, I am so sorry for your loss. Please know that Parker was one of my best friends for many years. I loved him like a brother, and I will miss him forever. We had so many happy times together and I will cherish these memories forever. A part of me will be forever changed with his passing. Again, my deepest sympathies.
Our condolences to the family. We left the Syracuse area many years ago and I only knew Betty and Joe. Joe and I both worked at Bristol Labs. May he rest in peace.
I’m so sad to hear of Chip’s passing. He was a forever friend to my my aunts and uncle (Bette, Barbara and Harold) and family and a truly kind human. Over the years he became family to them.
Wayne and Ann, so sorry to hear of Chip’s passing. Our prayers are with you.
So sorry to hear of his passing. We were good friends till i moved away.
