I am so saddened to hear of the passing of my lifelong and good friend, Chuck. I have many fond memories from when we were back in school. We learned to play tennis together and always had a good time just “hanging out”. I was looking forward to having his help restoring Dad’s 88 Oliver. Looks like we will just have to discuss that when I join him in Heaven! Please accept my sincerest sympathies.
We were so sorry to hear of Chuck’s passing. He was sure a great guy! The world was a better place because of him and he will be missed by all who knew him.
Chuck’s family – So sorry to hear of Chuck’s passing. I have many fond memories of him as my Sunday School teacher, friend of Mervin and Marlene, attended some parties at the farm I suspect, neighbors and good friends. I can still hear his laugh, you just couldnt miss it. May your memories bring you smiles amid the tears as you face your loss. It has been years since I saw your folks, but it was while visitng someone in a nursing home. They were good people and will be missed. God Bless you all!
