On behalf of the Oklahoma Music Educators Association, we are deeply sorry at the passing of Chelsea. May knowing his former colleagues are keeping his family in our thoughts and prayers bring some comfort and peace to them.

The best band director, choir director and friend that Wewoka had while I have lived here. It was a blessing for us to have known him. Our whole family loved him and his family
Chelsea - a formidable, exacting educator who's love of music inspired all his pupils to do their very best, put yourself out there, and try a little harder. He earned all his pupil's respect and love, we probably would have followed him anywhere - Yea Band! As an adult my husband Jamie and I enjoyed many visits and dinners out with he and Carol, spending hours talking politics, and the state of the world, they always entertained us with their latest travel stories, beekeeping mishaps, and family news. I'll miss you awfully Chels, and I pray that Carol and kids will know His peace that surpasses all understanding, Vaya con Dios, Chels.
