He had one of his old roomies come and visit him last week, Brian Moran, and they had a great time catching up. Brian was drafted and has many stories to tell and Chase is all ears.
These guys are Colin Bates, whose parents let Chase stay with them until he got housing, Brian Moran, the one who visited and then of course Chase. They were all roommates until they were either drafted, graduated or both. They will be friends for life. And of course I can't forget Mark Fleury, another buddy of theirs who was drafted and also playing ball. His mom and I have chatted on the phone a few times about how Chase is doing out in Chicago. Close ties to the boss man, never hurts.
This is me with Diane Fleury at last years College World Series. I think she is Chase' biggest fan....I love that about her!On another note, I will be having back surgery this Monday, the 28th. This will be my second back fusion. From what I understand it is hereditary, thanks Daddy, and since the first one went well 5 years ago I am looking forward to another great five years after this one. :-)
I do hope that Chase will update his blog soon and let everyone know the kinds of things he is learning for a wonderful nonprofit organization. He is so good with meeting people and "bringing in the money", he takes after his Uncle Rick that way. One day Chase will be head of his own company helping out others, using his abilities he is learning now and the connections he has with baseball. I have Faith, and I know his friends, their families and of course his own family does too.
Until next time,
Judith~mother of Chase
