Chip was a respected and cherished husband, father, and friend to countless people. His intelligence continued to soar into his career in IT, where he eventually retired. His easy-going personality made him one of the most supportive people in his families lives. Anything at all anyone wanted to do, Chip would be all in, ready to support and encourage any way he could to those he loved.
He enjoyed listening to music, specifically “the oldies” channel and cheering on the Atlanta Braves. Chip was a big kid at heart, especially when it came to his grandbabies. You could always guarantee he was playing with Legos or going all out dressing up on Halloween.
His loving soul and gentle spirit will be missed by all who knew and loved him but we take comfort in knowing he is now at peace.
