Bill and I are so saddened to hear this news. Chuck was always so upbeat, intense, and so interested in the human experience. He dedicated everything he did to making a positive difference in the world. He and Cindy were an inspiration to us.

What a loss to all of us! What a gain for heaven. ...

Chuck was one of the kindest and bravest men I have ever met. I had the pleasure of working with him on CARF surveyors. He was a very bright man with a big heart and a big smile! He will be missed! It was a pleasure knowing him! RIP Chuck! Cathy Griffin

We were so sorry to hear that Chuck passed away. Such a hard thing to lose your husband, dad and grandpa. Our hearts break for you. We treasure the memories of our boys playing baseball together. Your family was always so generous and kind. Thinking of you.

Cindy, I was thrilled to finally meet you in person at a conference after hearing about you for years.

I was saddened to hear of the death of Chuck. We worked together at Holy Trinity Parish and I still remember your wedding. I ran into him several times while he was at Network 180 and he updated me on your wonderful family. May God bring you and your family peace.
