Staff to the Memorial Hospital of Gardena, and in 1974 he was awarded a fellowship degree by the American Academy of Family Physicians. By 1977, Fred was named medical director of the hospital. The Chasan Villa Chasan and Roslyn built a large Mediterranean-style Villa designed for entertaining in Palos Verdes Estates, California in the late 1970s. The house was built atop scenic cliffs with a panoramic view of the Pacific Ocean on Paseo del Mar, a street made famous for landslides and later being the street Marvel used as the fictional headquarters for Avengers. In the early 1980s, the aging city-owned storm drain system fell into a state of disrepair and after a California Water Service Company water main broke, a landslide destabilized the cliffs supporting the villa's foundation. The family was forced to evacuate the estate in 1981 and within two years the remaining portions of the property had either been demolished or fallen into the sea. A jury found the city was negligent in their duties to maintain the storm drain system and the city settled the case in what became the largest settlement of its kind. Later years and death In the aftermath of The Chasan Villa, Chasan and Roslyn moved to Manhattan Beach, California, away from the Los Angeles peninsula. After retiring from private medical practice, the couple moved to Rancho Santa Fe, California in the late 1980s and he rejoined the United States Military as a Medical Officer in the Navy working as a physician at Naval Medical Center San Diego. The couple were visiting family in New York City in September 2001 and dined at Windows on the World of the North Twin Tower of the World Trade Center on September 10, hours before the September 11 attacks. Chasan died on June 20, 2005 and was buried at Fort Rosecrans National Cemetery with a view overlooking the naval harbor and the surrounding sea, similar to the view from The Chasan Villa. He posthumaously received recognition at the Mt. Soledad National Veterans Memorial, honoring his service both to the U.S. Army and Navy.
