Dad,

It's been almost a month now and there hasn't been a single day that I have not thought about you. I see you everywhere and in everything; the lessons you taught, the jokes you made, and the love you gave.

I was truly blessed to have you as my father, and I will always cherish the memories I have of you. I will keep you in my heart and keep you in my thoughts, and in that way I will keep you alive.

Amanda and I are going to miss you so very much Dad, for all of the momentous occassions that are to come in our lives. But we know know you will be watching over us, and filling us with your spirit and love.

We love you Dad,

Keith & Amanda

Kathy, family and friends,

My condolences to you all in this time of need. Sorry for your loss. Chuck will be missed. I will always remember
our conversations at Harding over a cup
of jo, with maybe a plate of fries and
gravey and of course a chicken dog from the grill. Chuck helped me get my feet wet at the VA. Many conversations
and laughs. I will miss his smile and his never give up attitude to keep on going. Rest in peace and may the Lord
keep you under his wing. May God bless
your family and friends in his name
Jesus Christ our Lord and Savior Amen

Dear Kathy & Family,
Just found out about Chuck's "home going" today. What an incredible man who touched lives in so many ways. He was always ready to give a word of encouragement to me and assure me my work was making a difference. Earth's loss is truly Heaven's gain! How exciting to know he has finally met the Savior he loved and, for him, everything now makes sense! You remain a precious part of our memories in Buffalo.

Chuck, when we first met you 5 years ago at Chrissy's college graduation we knew you would be a great addition to the family. You were a great father, father-in-law and a special grandfather to Camryn and Jack. We enjoyed your company at the many family gatherings. The wonderful memories will always be in our hearts. You will be deeply missed.

Mr. Harding you were such a loving, caring man that made everyone laugh. Your family was an extended part of mine and I will never forget how welcome and loved you made me feel. You will truly be missed but your memory will last forever.
I find comfort knowing that you are finally home, in peace and out of pain. Please watch over everyone here... especially Camryn, Jack and baby Sam as they will miss you the most!

Dear family, my thoughts, prayers and deepest condolences are with you all!
