I woke up this morning to see this post and I am so shocked and sad to hear of Chip’s passing. I had the opportunity to work closely with Chip at CVS Health. He will be missed by all. He was a great colleague but more importantly a great husband and father. My thoughts and prayers go out to his family and friends during this difficult time. To Len, and to Greg whom I had the pleasure to work closely with at CVS with Chip I’m so sorry for your loss. Chip was awesome and to the whole Upper Edge family I am so sorry for your loss. This is a very sad day.

Such sad news. I partnered with Chip, Len Riley and Gregory Hall for a large strategic engagement during our time at CVS Caremark. Chip was such an amazing soul and I remember how well he orchestrated a complex contract negotiation process. Few years later, Chip and I bumped into each other at NRF when he was at Lowe's. He was beaming with a big smile and hugged me after a warm handshake. I am sure he leaves lot of good memories within his family, friends and colleagues. Rest in peace, Chip! 🙏

This is a beautiful tribute for a great guy who will be missed tremendously. I worked for Chip during his time at CVS Health. Not only was he a mentor, he was a friend. Chip, Len and I had a lot of laughs together. I connected with him in March and happy we were able to catch up. Sending my condolences as my heart breaks for his family, friends, and colleagues.

I am devestated to hear this sad news. Chip (and Greg Hall) took a chance on me when I first moved to the US and both were so supportive as I navigated corporate life in the US. He was encouraging and kind and a great leader. My thoughts go out to his family at this saddest of times.

So sad...I knew Chip years ago and he was such an amazing person. My heart goes out to his family.

So sorry to hear this, my sympathies for the UE team.
