I just learned that Chantez passed. I will miss seeing him at Sunday Mass. I made special effort to make conversation with him whenever I saw him. My deepest condolences to his family and friends at passageways. May he rest in eternal peace.

Chantez's life was a huge success as he achieved the most important thing on earth: to dwell forever in the home of the Lord. Chantez loved the Church and loved Jesus. Christ The King Parish became his family. There will always be a special place in my heart for my good buddy, "Tez".
