CHICHESTER, John Henry

Wickenburg Sun, Wickenburg, AZ May 14, 2008 John Henry Chichester of Wittmann passed away in his home on April 29 at the young age of 49. John was born on Sept. 11, 1958. John will be greatly missed; he impacted so many lives in a positive way. John never knew anyone as an enemy. He treated everyone he came in contact with as a friend. John lived a life that few people can imagine. When he was 27 years old, his kidneys failed and he lived the next 22 years on dialysis. In the last few years of his life, he developed serious heart problems, and his general health continued to deteriorate. Through all of this he always remained positive and upbeat. He never let his problems get him down and always continued to treat everyone with kindness. His gentle spirit influenced everyone he came in contact with. John is survived by his adoptive mother Lucille, his natural mother Janelle, his brother Jim and a long list of friends.
