I worked with Chuck at A & P in both Maumee, and Rossford back in the 60's and 70's. We also enjoyed hunting together. He had a great sense of humor. He was fun to work with and fun to be with.. He had a work ethic second to none.. I am so sorry for your lose. He left us much too early

Audra, Lisa & Susan. I am so sorry for your loss. Your Dad was a great mentor to me. I always loved going to work to hear his "words of wisdom". I know he loved all of you very much. My thoughts & prayers are with all of you.

Lisa, Susan and Audra,
You Father was a no-nonsense, good humored man that helped make my years at Lemoyne even more enjoyable. I still have the poem he wrote when I was leaving.
I hope that you will think of him often, for those thoughts will put a smile on your face and in your heart.
Dick Weber, Don Carter and Ray Bluth now welcome another "Hall of Famer" to their kegler kingdom.
Mr. Przymierski
