Please accept our sincerest condolences on the loss of Chuck. I have so many happy memories of spending time at each other's homes when we were growing up. We were very lucky. I know Chuck fought a brave battle. God bless him and all of you at this time of sorrow.

By all accounts, Chuck lived the life designed for us by our Savior. What a magnificent example he is for we Believers walking the path! Not having crossed paths with Chuck since high school, but enjoying fond memories of that period, I look forward to seeing Chuck once again when my time comes. Sincere blessings to the McDowell family.
