Truly, one of the nicest, most genuine of a guy I've met. We did a series of shows with BoxCar while Chubby was with him back in the 80s and it was a great time.

I'm saddened to hear of Chubby's passing but I'm happy I knew him and for the life he lived. Be with The Lord now my friend.

My prayers and sympathies go out for his family and friends.

Sincerely,
Chris "Tiny" Olson

So sorry to hear this. I wish I woulda' run into him back when I was living 7 miles from Xenia in the early-mid 70s. He had a great run. RIP Chubby.
