I met Chip at Franklin Bluff 1974 while working the pipeline. We were both in the Teamsters Union. Enjoyed reading about all the politics he was into too. Mike Alexander
Please join friends in the celebration of the Chip's life on June 27 2026 at the Douglas Sandy Beach shelter from 1:00 - 3:00. There will be photos; Chip's music collection will be played; some reminiscences and stories will be offered. If you would like to contribute to the event, Kay McCarthy (kwmccarthy@alaska.edu) is coordinating offers of food and beverages.
Well just found this page. Chipper was a friend, comrade in many Alaskan adventures that all of us who came to Alaska lusted for and cherished. He is missed and I will be at his celebration to see who is still kickin and tell some memories of Chips light and dark sides! Laugh on Chip!! you always had the last laugh
