I doubt they would ever bring Chef back in any form, I also think it was the best closure they could give at the time as it left it potentially open for his return but was easy to drop. Its easy to understand anyone wanting more of Chef, but if the actor is dead and understandably the creators don't want to carry on with a new voice actor, there's nothing that can be done. I also think that it would be wrong to give it a happy ending as the reality is that their conflict with Isaac Hayes was not a story with a happy ending.
