He was always there to help me out when I needed him and I'm definitely going to miss him alot. Ryan unfortunately didn't get that much time with him and Chase will hardly remember but I'll keep his memories alive and try to impress him with my knowledge. I know he's really disappointed that I don't know how to change a tire... So I'll learn just for him less
