I visted Chase’s Bench on November 20th, 2023 and I felt at peace with myself while alone on that hilltop. The sun was shining and the breeze calmed my nerves; it was a serene feeling after a long day. Thank you for sharing Chase’s story and building this bench for people to visit.

I’ve been enjoying life and the passage of time a little more with some big recent changes in my life. Sitting here and meditating and enjoying the morning sun rise has been some peace I needed.
Thank you Chase.

Beautiful hike! Thank you for sharing Chase’s story.

We feel blessed and honored to have a quiet moment at Chase’s bench. Many of us are mothers, and some of us have experienced loss; we send love and strength to the family and friends of Chase. We will definitely visit this spot again and sit and contemplate. Thank you.

We had a wonderful time hiking and enjoyed a peaceful stop at Chase’s Bench. Thank you for sharing Chase’s story and providing a serene rest spot to remember him by. Sending love to Chase’s family and friends.

I grew up on this Mesa. My family was here before any of the homes were built around this area. I used to ride my horse down into Peñasquitos Reserve and probably came down this path many years as a 14 year old. I have a 14 year old boy and his favorite place to come visit is my parents house which is still here on this Mesa. My prayers and love are with your family and pray that Chase is in the presence of our Lord and Creator who created him and loves him infinitely. 💗🙏
