Bill and Molly and family,
My sincerest condolences on Chuck's passing. Chuck was an amazing human being, and yes a true Lafayette legend, and was always a joy to be around. I enjoyed every single story he had to share when we were together. He and Lois were two of my most favorite people - I enjoyed many a homemade pie and ice cream with them as well as garden walks and trips to the Flying X with them were a joy. Thanks for sharing them with all of us!

Bill and Molly and family, very sorry to know Chuck has passed. Chuck was an amazing human being, one of my most favorite people, and there will never be another one like him. I enjoyed every moment ever spent with he and Lois - ice cream and pie eating, garden evaluations, going to the Flying X with them, the pancake breakfast, everything! He was a gift to all who knew him and I will always remember he and Lois very fondly.

I have fond memories of Chuck especially from High School days. He was not only a hard worker and successful at farming and business, he was also a Bobcat through and through. My condolences to all.
