I attended Penn’s services today. A lovely service. It was wonderful to see his entire family and to hear from them. He would have been proud and happy. He meant. A lot to his synagogue his family and friends. I knew him for around 45 years. First as my lawyer then as my partner and always as a friend. When ever I needed help or counsel he was always there. Many times I didn’t need to ask for the help he came to me knowing I needed it. He presided  over and married my wife and me. I loved his final directives which he left in his will for his friends and family. Typical Penn and all helpful for us who remain behind. There was also the joy of reuniting with old friends and colleagues. Brought together by Penn once again.   His was A life well lived.  He cared more  about giving and trying to teach others values than getting something  from people. We should all live that lesson. I look forward to seeing him again when it is my time. In the meantime I will try to follow his lead in life

My deepest condolences to the family.  I was one of Mr. Chabrow's secretaries many years ago while at Wampler Buchanan.  Thinking back I can remember his laugh, the precise manner in which he conducted the signing of Wills and the  dedication to his clients and to his profession of the law.  May you rest in peace Mr. Chabrow.

Heartfelt condolences to the Chabrow family.  I first met Penn over 30 years ago during a prolonged legal matter dealing with a mortgage company fraud.   He was a brilliant attorney who always represented his clients in the best manner.  Later, we reconnected at Bet Shira where he masterfully led services every year on the holidays.    He was very talented !
May his memory always be a blessing.

Our condolences go out to Sheila Chabrow and the whole family.  Penn was the attorney for Alexander Montessori School and the McGhee family for decades.  My mother and father admired Penn so much.  They respected his skills, experience, and wisdom.  Penn often shared his pride in his children, and his love for them and his whole family.  Penn was energetic, brilliant, humble, patient, and astute. Most of all, he had a great sense of humor, a joy for life, and he really cared about people.  He used to say to me, "Listen to Uncle Penn..."  and he advised me like I as part of the family.  On the day that I learned Penn was ill, I was calling to get his sage advice, and I was so sad to learn that he was ill.  Penn gave so much to all the people he knew.  He will be greatly missed. - James and Joyce McGhee, and  Alex McGhee

Penn was my partner in our practice of law for over 20 years.  He was good humored, excellent at his legal specialty, and had a wide circle of friends through his participation in many local civic and religious activities.  While on vacations, Penn and his lovely and convivial wife Sheila traveled on seemingly every tour there was to all the most interesting and historical sites in the World.  The World was blessed with the 86 years of the life of Penn B Chabrow. God bless Penn. We will miss him.
