In 1947 he immigrated to Canada. Eventually he settled in Hamilton where he met and married Tillie. Together, these two remarkable people set their sites on working hard and having a family. Chester was employed at Stelco for three years before making his way to Dofasco where he worked for 38 years. He was a handyman, a gardener, a harmonica player, an avid walker, a good neighbour, friend, and he loved to polka. Above all, family was most important to Chester. That will be his legacy. How fortunate we have been to have Chester in our lives as long as we have. A man of faith and integrity he taught us all the important lessons in life to be kind, to be honest, to work hard and to ease the suffering of others.
