Not sure what to say?

I am so sorry for your loss. Back in the day I was the Swift HR manager for Chuck´s area. We remained friends over the years. We always called one another for the holidays and often in between. I am so sad to hear of his passing. To his family he talked often of you with love and pride. May he Rest In Peace.

I was so sorry to hear the news of Chuck's death. He was a family man, who loved his wife and his family fiercely. That was so clear every time I spoke to him. I have always been proud to call him my father-in-law. I will miss our phone conversations and his attempts at texting. Rest in peace Daddy-O.

I´m so very sorry for your loss. We never have enough time with our loved ones .

Chuck started as my boss and in 15 years became a good friend. He was an "old fashioned" good guy, genuine, sincere and unmotivated in his associations. He gave good solid advice and lent a helping hand, just because. He always seemed to look for and find the best in people, even when others (me) couldn't or wouldn't see it. Chuck was one of the most even tempered people I've encountered EVER. The world lost a gem, a truly decent human being. "They broke the mold" God got one of...

Chuck was quite a guy. Gave me a hard time many times all in fun. Enjoyed our chats about his gardens , animals, and dress codes lol. His fist bumps to my shoulder in the morning to scare me at my desk were always a treat. So sorry to hear of this. He was a genuine kind of guy that will be missed.

Chuck was a great man. Would always lend an ear and gave great advise. Never judged and would always stick up for you. He left a lasting impression and we will never forget him.

What a great loss to the world. Chuck will be missed by so many. With a heavy heart, I wish to give my sincere condolence to you and your family.
