I'm just learning about this and I'm so sorry to hear this news. Coach Missler, was your typical hard nose football coach and it was my honor to be coached by him during 1988-1991 @ Bellingham. He taught all of us the value of hard work to achieve your goals. That is a lesson I've taken with me throughout my life. R.I.P. Coach.

Few men have so singularly expanded my understanding of my own savior than Dr. Missler. I am deeply saddened by this translation of this silver-souled saint. Yes, that is selfish, but I feel my sadness is so great I will have to ask Christ to bear this as well. Go to light, Dr. Missler. I hope to see you and Nancy again for the first time one day.

Chuck was my first crush. We went to the 7th grade dance together in Sharon Mass. I can even remember the theme song..."Heavenly Shades Of Night are Falling, it's twilight time" by the Platters. We were born 10 days apart. I was sent away to High School in New York and I never saw him again, but I've never forgotten him either. He was a good guy!!

My sincere condolences on the passing of Mr. Missler. Had him as a coach in jr high then in high school basketball. Such great memories...I can still feel his punch in my arm when I told him I didnt like Bob Seger's song "turn the Page!" A different time back then when coaches actually coached you in sport and in life...without the fear of being sued...and you actually were taught what being an athlete, good sport and better human being was all about. Cheers to you Mr. Missler!! Great guy!

To all those who considered Chuck a good friend and colleague, our mutual memories are "crystal clear and set in stone." There are so many times in our collective memories that were shared with our wonderful friend, going to Pats and Red Sox games, memorable class trips (Chuck always had a tale to tell) our (perfectly legal) poker games, or just going out for coffee to keep our post-retirement friendships active. There are too many memories to recall without a "mind-boggle" but we all know that almost everything we did with him was memorable, ranging from notable to unforgettable. He was a good friend and a one-of-a-kind personality. Rest in Peace, Charlie...we'll all miss you.
