This is always hard to hear, and even harder for a family to endure.

My condolences to them.

A gentle giant that never raised his voice. One of the Hooterville Gang.

Hey everyone. My dear friend Chester (KCFJR) died of a apparent heat attack yesterday at his home in Kansas City. What a great man, we talk almost everyday and was a joy to be around. He was a Hooterville 400 regular, and we road many miles together.

I met him for the first time in 2005 at the first 400. Since yesterday morning I have tried to call him, and never got a return call. I was getting a bad feeling and when I call again this evening I got the bad news from his brother.

Please send a prayer his way.. You will be missed my brother..

Wow, what a shock. Chester was definitely a great guy. Petey - was that pic at CFR in Nakusp? Looks like it from the date.

Wheaton answered my question.

Rest in peace, Chester. Though we never met, we apparently celebrated our birthdays on the same day. Condolences to friends, family and those whose days you brightened.
