I am Chip's Uncle, Brother to Chip's Mother. I remember the day Chip was born, he was a welcomed sight since Chip's soon to be Uncle Ray (my Brother) died one month before Chip came into this world. I also remember changing his diapers - another first for me. Chip was always asking me to send him stuff about the Space Programs since I was living in Cape Canaveral and working on the Saturn Apollo Program. Chip had a brilliant mind. When he visited me in Florida, he was about 10 years old and he saw my old TV in the closet. Chip pulled the TV out of the closet, tore it down, replaced some parts and rebuilt that TV and it worked !. We also had many discussions about playing pool since I was very into it when I was a teenager, coming home with the blue chalk on my fingers. Chip is in a better world now and I will pray for him, may he rest in peace, Loving you Chip, Uncle Ronnie
