Chase C. Yarns Obituary

Chase C. Yarns, 26 of Clarks Summit passed away Monday morning.

Born in 1998 at CMC in Scranton, Chase was the son to Amy and Chief Christopher Yarns of Clarks Summit and was part of the first set of Quadruplets born in Northeastern PA.

Chase was a graduate of Abington Heights High School in 2016 and was a member of the cross-country and track and field teams. He attended and graduated from Word of Life Bible Institute in Pottersville, NY, and later graduated from Clarks Summit University in Clarks Summit, PA. Chase's hard work was recognized at both Word of Life and CSU as a graduate with high honors (4.0 GPA).

He was raised as a proud member of Hickory Street Presbyterian Church in Scranton and was recently an active member of both Steamtown Church in Scranton and Hawthorne Gospel Church in Hawthorne, NJ.

Chase was a loving and caring son, brother, and uncle. He was a man of deep faith and had a love for his church and helping others. Chase enjoyed the outdoors, going on run/hikes, traveling, and spending time with his family. He put his passions to action. His love of music brought him to teach himself guitar; his love of running carried him from high school track and cross-country teams to completing the Steamtown Marathon in 2022; his love of people led him to join various clubs/organizations that all shared a common interest in helping and working with others.

Chase's smile, laugh, sense of humor, and quick wit will be missed by everyone who knew him.

He is survived by his parents Amy and Christopher Yarns, Clarks Summit, PA; siblings, Blaise Schultheis (Brittany), River Vale, NJ; Ross Schultheis (Sabrina Laytos), Scranton, PA; Tiana Salerno (Eric), Clawson, MI; Rhys Yarns, Clarks Summit, PA; Trey Yarns (fiancée Dagny Rippon), Bloomington, IN; "His Person" Paige Porro, Wood-Ridge, NJ; nephew Hudson Schultheis, River Vale, NJ; and many beloved aunts, uncles, and cousins.

Chase was preceded in death by his grandparents, Carol and Donald Jenkins and Marie Russell.

For I am convinced that neither death nor life, neither angels nor demons, neither the present nor the future, nor any powers, neither height nor depth, nor anything else in all creation, will be able to separate us from the love of God that is in Christ Jesus our Lord. – Romans 8: 38-39.
