I first knew him while he was the owner of the Milwaukie MiniMart. He always had a smile and a hug for his customers, and was once voted by WW as the 'friendliest minimart in Portland'. I lost contact w/ him for a year, but reunited our friendship after his accident. I would go visit him,in the care facility, and although he was paralyzed, and on a trach and ventilator, he always was cheerful. He especially liked reading the bible, and oatmeal cookies! How many of us would be able to persevere through what Chester went through? When my life feels 'bumpy', I just have to think about Chester and his strength through this last year. What an amazing, beautiful person! Please keep Tiffany and the kids in your prayers. Katie Light Yes, Chester will be missed. I first knew him while he was the owner of the Milwaukie MiniMart.
