       Jim is one of the Colorado MPIP/MRF members that came out of his way to visit me in the Hospital after my accident last year.  He was a good man and tried to fight this fight and help others.

    JAMES DONALD CHASE

     

    Jim, 58, passed away July 3, 2011. Beloved husband of Jan; father of Christina Jane and Kathryn Mabis; son of Jane Chase; and brother of Barbara (James) Rybacki and J. Givin (Nancy) Chase. He was preceded in death by his father, A. Mabis Chase. Jim graduated from The Hill School in Pottstown, PA as did his father and his brother. His daughter, Christina, will graduate from The Hill School in 2012. He received his BS & MBA in business from the University of Denver, and a Masters in Accounting from CU Denver. He was an avid golfer and skier, but his greatest love was his family. Jim dedicated a majority of his time to raising his girls. They are fortunate that he was able to be involved in their schools and their sports. He particularly enjoyed serving as the Lacrosse team dad for Kathryn for the last five years. A Celebration of Life for Jim will be held Friday, July 8, 10:00 am at St. John's Lutheran Church, 700 S Franklin St, Denver. In lieu of flowers, donations may be made to The Hill School, http://www.thehill.org, The Denver Botanic Gardens, http://www.botanicgardens.org, or the Melanoma Research Foundation, http://www.melanoma.org. Please share condolences at HoranCares.com.

      Jim really was a good man, always interested in others when he was facing serious issues himself.  So sad to hear that he passed away, but I'm glad you posted this, Jerry. Too often, I'm afraid, people just dissappear and we never know what happened.

      Jerry… Is this the same “Jim In Denver” sign in I am familiar with? He wasn’t happy with me at first but apologized and I enjoyed sparing with him as we all have different perspectives.

      This has been a difficult year for all.

      Thank you for posting Jerry.

      I've often wondered why we haven't heard from Jim. He last posted in April.  He was so helpful to many with all of the research he did to help figure out what step to take next. Prayers are being sent to his family.

      Jim was very active on the board and such a caring person. If I remember correctly he was on an Ipi trial. He went out of his way to help many of us. I pray for strength, guidance and His peace for Jim's family.

      Jim will be dearly missed.  He was so helpful while I was on the ipilimumab/yervoy trial.  I remember that he and I both had to abandon ship on this treatment about the same time. Had responded partially but not completely.  He was looking for a new treatment.  I am so sorry that he didn't find the right one.  God bless him.  Val
