Obituary of William Arthur Chase

William “Bill” Arthur Chase crossed to heaven unexpectedly on November 8, 2023 with his daughter, Wanda, by his side.

Bill was born on February 14, 1939 and was 84 years old at his passing. 

He was preceded in death by his parents, Wayne and Doris Chase; sister, Barbara Chesworth; and two brothers, Donald and Dean Chase. 

Sadly, Bill also lost his wife, Edith (Miller) Chase of 34 years, and his second wife, Elaine (Crawford-Barrette) Chase of 20 years.

He also lost a son, William A. Chase II; and a great-grandson, Christopher Berkey, both as infants. 

The family who survives to carry on his legacy are his brother, Terry (Laurie) Chase; daughters, Carol (Mike) Berkey, Wanda Adams, and Debra (Robert) Agard; son, Jerry Chase; and grandchildren and great-grandchildren, Matthew (Melenie) Berkey, Rachel, Abigail, Brittney, Ashleigh, Craig (Robyn) Berkey, Camden, Rhealynn, Andrew (Bri) Adams, Irelyn, baby boy in January, step-children, Amari, Jahzmin, and Brooklyn, AnnaMarie (Jonathan) Bodholdt, Stephanie Chase, and Chase Agard. 

Bill had many interests through the years. He always enjoyed camping, fishing, and stock car racing at Pikes Peak Speedway. In his later years, he loved going to flea markets to see what treasures he could find. He enjoyed playing bingo and finding new restaurants. 

He has an extensive bottle collection from his days of working at several soda pop companies. Bill also worked at Rayko supply and Crissey Fowler Lumber until he retired. 

Bill, Dad, is already missed so much each and every day by so many people.
