About Chubb
Juan Villarreal (aka Chubb) was passionate about making this world a better place. He gave freely of his time and talents to many local organizations including The Crisis Resource Center of Steele County, Big Brothers Big Sisters and From the Heart Run. Juan passed away Oct 15, 2015 after a long and courageous battle with pancreatic cancer. We are working to honor Juan and continue what he started…
