     “He was the greatest big brother I could have asked for,” said the Jefferson High junior during a Red Ribbon Week assembly October 23.
     Describing Chase as generous, Taelor said, “He would always let me get a first elk before him. He let me reel in his fish because he knew I never got one.”
