Celebrating a life well lived. I will cherish the memories I have of my times with Chuck forever.
We would sing and play movie trivia with his old friend Frank Dimeri at the Gull Have Golf Course. When his eyes became too bad for him to play, we would meet for breakfast on occasion with the early morning golf crowd.

Thanks for being "an equal oportunity" employer (sorry I balked at fixing the roof). You taught me so much about life.
Hope you and Mom are reunited in a place where you can see and Mom can read (and remember it.)
I'll miss you both so very much.

I'll always remember Chuck and Don's dad as a great guitar player, one who played in the old Charlie Christian Chord-Change-Every-Beat style that was right up my alley! We spent an afternoon many years ago trading licks and singin' The Old Tunes from The Forties.
I do hope his passage was smooth and his landing on the other side was soft.
