<p>I want to say how very sorry I am to Timmy and the rest of the Mullen family for the loss of Chet. While I was a Bartender at the Christiana American Legion years ago he was a good friend. He was funny and always had a story to tell. My thoughts and prayers are with his family today. ( RIP Chet )</p>
