My condolences to the family. I had the pleasure of working for Chuck at Party Cookies (way back then!) doing his advertising. He was a dynamic and honest person who earned my respect.

May God bless you and your family in this time of sorrow. I knew Chuck from the bakery and also riding horses in Palos Hills.
