Dear Letitia, Steve, Audrey and family, I was saddened to read that your beloved Chips had passed. I have fond memories of Chips and all of you from your days in Belair. The photo of Chips that you selected for his obituary captures my memories of and squares 100% with the man I remember first meeting many decades ago when you befriended my Aunt Lilly Goodman in Harrisburg. To all of you please accept my heartfelt condolences. May the memory of Chips Chuprinsky be for a blessing.

It was an honor to comfort you in your final days. You always made us all feel so loved. We will miss your laugh, your scrunched up nose when you didn’t like something, you studying the menu at a restaurant like it was a bible and your warm embrace when we entered your home. Rest in the home of God dear Chips. Love you- Theresa
