He inspired me as a youth, coming to our elementary and setting a great example of a human being. I remember him saying, if you want to remember my name he would touch his chin and say "my name is hairy chin" I was a JPO back then and he talked about safety and respect for others. I retired a police officer myself and owe my time on earth to Harry Chinn Jr
