Tony, isn't it nice to know that Chuckie is at peace. There is a story, it is about
a ship that leaves one shore with people saying goodbye and crying, however
it then lands on the other side, with even more people so happy to see
the ship come in, as they are also crying... but with tears of joy! I am sure Carol will be the first in line waving him in~
Heaven just received an upgrade upon his arrival.

Sorry for your loss. Chuck and I grew up together. We started lifting weights after 8th grade and trained for 3 years. Even though we lost touch, we would contact eachother from time to time. He was a great guy and will be missed.
