I was devastated to learn yesterday of the passing my good friend and cohort in the pursuit of wine women & song. Chappy was literally and figuratively larger than life with a quick wit. I spent many days and nights with him in past years "doin' " Jazz Fest, lunching at Galatoires , prowling the streets of New York and other venues too numerous to mention.
I was notified by his brother, Tommy, an attorney in the Big Easy. He is survived by his son, Zepher, who I understand works with ESPN and is London covering Wimbledon. My condolences go out to his family and all who had the pleasure of knowing him over the years. We have lost a good one who will truly be missed!
His service will be held at the Lakelawn Funeral Home, 5100 Ponchartrain Blvd., New Orleans at 10am Saturday June 27 with a memorial service at One Eyed Jacks, 615 Toulouse at noon. I can't make it in person, but I will be there in spirit. God speed Chappy!
