Jan called to tell me he had been in a nursing home since
his Mother died.
Jan and I reminisced about our days in the 4th grade (Mrs. Jackson)
at Sam Houston and how all of us including Chip were rather much
terrorized by the woman. Jan reminded me of the time she called
Chip LB and he corrected her by politely saying he would rather be
called Chip. Mrs. Jackson returned the request by spanking him.
He was retired from the military, a retired elementary teacher, taught water aerobics
in Maryville at Olympia Health Club and also created
dried flower arrangements that were sold in Townsend.
While at MHS he was a member of the band and several other
organizations. Chip took care of his mother for years and they were
living together when both of them went to the nursing homes. She died almost
a year ago.
If you go on line the Maryville Daily Times should have
the funeral arrangements
