Our Winged Sisters
Our fallen angels forever ride in the sky
no rhyme no reason
all we can do is wonder why
our sisters were taken away so soon.
If you keep them in your heart you can see their spirit in the moon.
We take solace in the fact that they forever ride free
They have become our guardian angels.
For the wind at our backs comes from their wings as they silently ride behind us, guiding and protecting.
So to them we say, "Ride strong, Ride forever"
know that you will always be our sisters, for in body you may be gone
but in our hearts your spirit will continue to live strong.
~~~~Your sister forever, Pup~~~
Our sister Phyllis will never be gone from our hearts. Phi was an amazing sister, her and Blue (her baby blue Panhead) were always up for a ride to nowhere. She had a strong love for her sisters and her family.
She left us two beautiful daughters that have their mother's spirit and zest for life. They have both grown into the strong magnificent independent women.
Her daughters hold the memories of their moms wild life close. Phyllis was also a grandmother who loved her grandchildren more than she did blue. How proud she must be knowing that they too are growing strong and free just as she would have wanted.
Our sister Mary was an amazing women. She had a gentle kind spirit. She always made the time for her sisters. Shortly after the doctors told her that her breast cancer was in remission she got on her bike and rode the 2,200 miles to Nationals to be with her sisters. The next year the cancer returned and it was just to much for her. Mary was truly incredible and we miss her deeply.

Raymond "Bear" Chaffin
Our Original Big Brother
Lace Big Brother 1983-1991
Bear was a great man. On many occasions he took the time to work on a Sister's bike, offer a helping hand, or deliver words of advice. He cannot be replaced, and all who knew Bear deeply feel the loss of a true friend and brother.
Bear was a great husband, father and Big Brother. Without his support, Leather & Lace MC would not exist. But his memory will always live on in Jennifer, Angela, Windy, and all of the Lace Sisters who knew and loved him.
