Rest easy my brother we have it from here.
Frank Schaeffer
When I'm called to duty God wherever flames may rage
grant me the strength to save a life whatever be its age
Help me to embrace a little child before it is too late
or save an older person from the horror of that fate
Enable me to be alert to hear the weakest shout
and quickly and efficiently put the fire out
I want to fill my calling Lord and give the best in me
to guard my every neighbor and protect his property
And if according to your will I am to lose my life
God bless with your protecting hand my children and my wife

Chuck-O's passing is a huge loss to the Towing industry and to the community. He was one of the hardest working guys we know. He was always there for not just his customers but for his friends in the towing and auto business as well. Chock-O will live on in our memories forever. We send our prayers and sympathy to the Stead family and friends. God Bless.

Nothing Gold Can Stay
Nature’s first green is gold,
Her hardest hue to hold.
Her early leaf’s a flower;
But only so an hour.
Then leaf subsides to leaf.
So Eden sank to grief,
So dawn goes down to day.
Nothing gold can stay.

I used to have so much fun playing baseball with Chucko and being coached by his dad. Mr. Stead was a great coach. Sitting in the back of study hall cracking jokes together was always a fond memory. I'm sad we never hung out as adults and am deeply saddened by the news. My heart goes out to the family.

Chuck was a great next door neighbor and friend, always helping anyone who needed it. I spoke to him the day before and was shocked he passed so suddenly. He will be sorely missed in the neighborhood. My heart goes out to anyone who knew this great guy. May he rest in peace.

Chucko, your passing leaves a heartache that will be very hard to heal. You'll forever be remembered as a kind and caring person who loves spending time with family and friends. You always made yourself available to brighten the lives of others. You took the time and were always there to help and support all your family and friends.
Every persons life must at sometime end, but how they lived and who they touched is what we remember. You will always be remembered for being a kind and caring person. You will be deeply missed by all.
I feel very fortunate to have you and become a part of your wonderful family. I've enjoyed the comfort of having you as a friend, and guarantee you'll never be forgotten. Good luck my friend.

Charlie, you will always be remembered as a person dedicated to your family, friends and your community. From supporting little league, the Berwyn and Paoli Fire Company's, and the Devon Horse Show you always made yourself available to support the community.
You are a good friend and always supported whatever endeavor we would get involved in. You will always be remembered for being a kind and caring person, and it is not hard to see how that attribute filtered down through your family.
I feel very fortunate to have known you and become a part of your amazing family. I've enjoyed having you as a friend, and, guarantee you'll never be forgotten. Good luck my friend!

I’m going to miss Chuck very much. We spent countless hours working on cars together. It’s a great loss to us all. He was always there to help anyone that needed it. No questions asked. I’m still in disbelief that he’s gone.
