Listen to the Chucker back in the early 70´s on WGAR 1220AM. His voice and personality was so relaxing and up lifting . Never injected opinions or politics. Loved and missed by many. Rest in peace Sir.

I listened to Chuck for over 40 years. Listening to Chuck would lift me up when I was down. Chuck seem to never have a bad day, nothing but love came from this mouth. He was a very special, one of a kind person. I wish I could of known Chuck personally.

I remember Chuck from the days of KS 100 now WGAR 99.5. Always remember the chucker on GAR, and Chubby Chucker on WMJI. Thought the Majic name was especially clever.

This is real shame. Chuck was a great guy who I'd know since college. My thoughts and condolences go out to his family and friends.

I was honored to go to the WGAR School of Broadcasting at age 17 in the 70's and then was fortunate to work with Chuck at several nights out in the Cleveland and Lorain County area. He was always a pleasure to work with and socialize with and kind to everyone he met. He will be truley missed. They say you die three times. When your heart physically stops, when they bury you, and when the last person on earth forgets you. Chuck will still be around for a long long time.

To chuck's family- my thoughts and prayers are with you. I am deeply sorry for your loss. Country music lost it's meaning Thursday. It will never have that soulful feeling again without that joyous voice behind the mic. Rest in peace Chuck.
