Bryan Chippeaux

Bryan Chip Bailey Chippeaux passed away on Thursday, April 10, 2014. He was born March 28, 1930, in West Leisenring, PA, to Bailey and Helen Chippeaux. He was preceded in death by his wife of 51 years, Jackie Liston Chippeaux, in August 2002.

Chip proudly served in the United States Air Force until his honorable discharge in 1952. He was stationed at Walker Air Force Base in Roswell, NM, where he met and married Jackie. Chip and Jackie ran a local business, Esquire Dry Cleaners, in Roswell for a number of years. Chip found pleasure in his family, music and sports. He played the string bass with the Roswell Symphony Orchestra and brass instruments with the Air Force Band. He loved to play golf and to follow the Pirates and Steelers. Chip and Jackie attended South Main Church of Christ in Roswell until their move to Las Cruces, NM in 2001.

Chip and Jackie are the parents of three children Bryan Kay Chippeaux, Kim Jeff Beasley, and Karen Greg Lehner. They were especially proud of their grandchildren Shannon Scott, Damon, Laura, and Dana and their greatgrandchildren William and Jaycie. He was comforted in his later years by his wonderful, loving caregivers Julie, Esmeralda, Hector and Lupe for always being there. The family is very grateful for their loving care. The family would also like to thank Mesilla Valley Hospice.
