Chester and I went through elementary and Jr. Hi school together. Our Dad's were golfing buddies! Chester was a great kid and a wonderful man. So many young athletes loved and respected coach Nap. He will be greatly missed. God's comfort to his family.

Dave and I met Chester and Bonnie at A Place at the Beach II, in Garden City, NC, many years ago and became friends. Went out to eat and watched the Steelers play on tv with our friends! Have visited them since their move to the beach and will miss him very much. He was a great guy and will be missed by many. Thinking of you Bonnie and Kristin, and sending hugs and prayers. May you rest in peace, Chester.

My memories of Chester are too numerous to count, our high school days and so many fun times with Him and Bonnie are foremost in my mind. May he rest in the arms of Jesus and may God grant peace to Bonnie, Max, and Kristen.

I have spoken w/ Chester several times over the past several months in preparation for our induction into the AlleKiski Hall of Fame on May 16th.
I inquired how many members of the team were planning to be present at the ceremony and he replied, "Most plan to attend, but we will see how many are still alive then."
Obviously, Chester will be watching from 'the other side'
The fragility of life.
I 'grew up' playing youth sports w/ Chester in Lower Burrell over sixty five years ago.
Fate led us to Arnold HS and fortuitous success on the gridiron and the baseball diamond. I had the good fortune to throw many completions to 'my tight end'.
Cherished memories lasting a lifetime.
Sadly, Chester's untimely demise will require those of us remaining to carry his spirit w/ us as we celebrate these achievements.
It is my hope that Chester's family, friends and loved ones find peace and solace in the almost eight decades he walked this earth and the eternity he will have in the next.
Peace, my brother.

I had the pleasure of being Chester's teammate on the 1964 football team. In fact I lined up next to him as the left tackle. Chester was known as the gentle Giant. A very good athlete not only in the 3 major sports but he was also a good golfer. Chester was an all-around good guy. I enjoyed our conversations. Chester may you rest in peace.
