My thoughts and condolences go out to the Chancey Family, I have known Mr Chancey since I was a teenager, Many good times with him at 28 Rima ct that I will never forget.

He used to join us when Bruce would have partys in the Basement. I had many great conversations with him as he stood behind the Bar...
Rest in Peace James.
