Love you and miss you so much Dad. Thank you for continuing to watch over your Family from Heaven.

Elliot, I was so sorry to hear about your dad. I never had the privilege of meeting him but he always had a friendly wave on good ol Briar Oaks Rd! You and your family r in my thoughts and prayers.

Pat, I never had the privelage to meet Chuck but heard from Natalie that you two were a match made in heaven and that he was a great husband and father to all of your children. I hope your time with him provided many amazing moments that you and the family can reflect on in the time to come and smile knowing how blessed you were to have him in your lives. He is no doubt smiling on you all from heaven.

God bless you all, John Townsend

Elliot, I'm so sorry to hear about your loss and know the heavy hearts you & all family members must have. I know when my dad passed, the heartaches were cared for by remembering ALL the wonderful memories with my dad. Do this ... it's a great band-aid ! He will be greatly missed, however, NEVER forgotten. My thoughts and prayers for you and all family members during this time.
On old BriarOaks friend,
Mark Hughes

His love of his wife and family were standouts about this man. They will miss him greatly.

We are sad for your loss, Ann and Pete Stetson

Chuck was a large part of my life from 1955 when we designed a wing panel for the B-58 to 1982 when he asked me to assist in bringing CAD/CAM to GD. I regret not visiting him more often.

What a outstanding Gentleman & a pleasure to have known.

Dad, you were larger then life which I realize now that you are no longer with us in this stage of life. You were my ultimate role-model in life. I tell my closest friends that I grew up with "Ward Cleaver" as my dad. You were perfect in everything you endeavored to do and left some very large shoes to fill. I never told you "I love you" enough, but hopefully the times I did at the end of this journey were recognized. Your eldest son, Elliot

Well, Chuck, we went thru lots of interesting and fun times at GD on the various airplane programs we worked on. I am very glad that you were a part of my life. See you on the other side.
