I am so very sorry for your loss. I went to high school with Chucky and hung out with him with my high school boyfriend Frank Houser. I was so shocked to her the news. Bob and Krista are right the memories came flooding back they will live on with all of us. Some of the things we did it is so nice to remember and bring a smile to my face. May all of your wonderful memories bring you peace at this difficult time.

Chuckie,
I am very sad you departed from our lives. Even though you are my brother-in-law; you were more like a blood brother to me. I will miss you immensely and you will be in my heart forever. Walk to the light Chuckie and enter the house of the lord. We will all be united someday under the roof of our father. God bless you. I love you brother!
