Dearest Sara and Mike, Our love for Charlie is never ending and Paul and I are so blessed to have met you back in 1969 and had you both as a big part of our lives. Your loss is felt deeply in your "native" city and Charlie lives on here in the wonderful work and love he gave to Lafayette.

Chuck was a fine Santa and a good yard hand for several years at the Austin Steam Train for several years when I was Superintendent. His positive attitude will be missed .

Chuck Hamsa was one of the finest gentlemen I have known. He was always smiling, had a wonderful outlook on life and could be very funny. I feel privileged to have been in his company and share with him his humor. Please know God is embracing him with his love. May he be eternally at piece. He was quite an admirable person.
With love and respect,
Cindy Traugott and children
