Chase Michael Anthony Kowalski
October 31, 2005 ~ December 14, 2012
Chase's bell is F6. When F6 rings, we remember an extraordinary son, brother, and grandson whose young life was brimming with love and an infectious zest for living. An adventurous and spirited soul, Chase embraced life with unbridled enthusiasm.
Chase was a fun loving energetic boy that had a true love of life. He completed his first triathlon at the age of six and ran in many community road races. At just two years old, his running talent became evident as he zoomed through track races. By the age of six, he astounded all by participating in and triumphing in his first triathlon, taking home the winner's trophy in his age group.
Chase had an unwavering love for baseball, a sport that he shared with his father, Steve. They would spend hours together in the yard, practicing and perfecting their skills. Chase's excitement for the game was palpable, and his determination to overcome any fear, like catching fly balls, was admirable.
Joining the cub scouts was just one of Chase's many interests. He could often be found in the yard playing ball, riding his bike or riding his quad. He was always excited to attend the kids work shop at the Trumbull Home Depot and he would delight in crafting and building LEGOs, and embarking on imaginative adventures with his sisters.
Chase was a true renaissance boy. He possessed a thirst for knowledge, voraciously reading and writing, and displaying an early fascination with history and the Titanic. His boundless curiosity and love of learning knew no bounds, and he had a unique gift of seeing wonder in the world around him.
Chase was also a compassionate and caring soul. His gentle nature, coupled with a radiant smile, endeared him to all he met. Whether he was spending time with family, friends, or participating in community activities, he radiated warmth and kindness. His heart was an endless wellspring of love, and he touched the lives of countless individuals, leaving behind an enduring legacy of goodness.
Chase will never be forgotten. A bell for Chase will always ring at Christmas.
