    My prayers and condolences go out to the family. My heart breaks to hear that Chi Chi has left us so early. Nothing and no one can replace the special person that she was and always will be in our hearts. Every thought of our past experiences, as children and as adults always bring a smile to my face. Chi Chi has placed a loving touch on many lives.
