    I worked with Chester from 1981 to 1983 at Sun Oil (Gulf Coast District out of Houston) as a fresh out of college engineer. I still remember going to the field with him to perform compressor analysis. He had all the monitoring equipment on hospital gurney carts in the back of a Ford Crown Vic station wagon. I’m working on probably my last project now, one task of which is to install online compressor monitoring. I had remarked that I could “remember when” we used a Polaroid camera to capture oscilloscope traces for compressor analysis. That was with Chester. Sun transferred me to Michigan in 1983. I am sad for his passing and I regret that I lost touch with Chester and many co-workers from those days.

I haven't known Chester for very long, but he and his wonderful family mean the world to me. I am here in the nursing home with Eloise, his precious wife. She and Chester love my little dog, Pumpkin and we promise to visit her often. They are both very much loved by the residents and staff at Summer Place.

Please except my condolences. May you find comfort in knowing that your dear one is safe in the memory of God, who will remember every detail about him and bring him back again. John 5:28, 29 gives this assurance.

Our condolence. We look to the time when as the Scriptures says sickness and death will be no more. Please read Isaiah 33:24 and Revelation 21:4
