I still remember Mr. Sauer (as I always had to refer to him at work) as pivotal in teaching me the insurance business, without whom I would not have been able to make a living! I mostly remember how he would tell stories in the business to give me knowledge, and I still remember those stories. You are still remembered in a wonderful way.

Dear CJ's Family,
We are so sorry to hear about the loss of your Dear Father.
I had the pleasure of working with CJ at Equitable Life. He always brought a smile and laughter to everyone in the Department. He loved his family, golf and enjoyed life to his fullest. He always took the time to acknowledge you. His laughter and smile will be missed. You are in our thoughts and prayers. Thank you for notifying us.

It's been many years since last seeing your Dad, but I'll always remember his great sense of humor and the love he had for his family.

Dear Cathy: I know you called me last night to let me know your dad had died, but I could not hear one number in the phone number you left, so I could not call you back. It is important for you to know how special your dad was to me, both as a business associate and my mentor in the insurance business. So often, people are different in their work lives and in their Private lives, but your dad felt that work was a natural extension of who he was, rather than an interruption of his life! When I started at the Equitable as his "one legged secretary" (as he called me because I sat on one leg and typed!), I did not know how instrumental he would be in my ability to make a living. If it had not been for your Dad sensing that I wanted to learn and his teaching me about the business through many stories he told, I would not be making a living in it as I have been able to do for many years! Your Dad was kind, thoughtful, caring, funny, and always considered the feelings of the people he worked with. The legacy he leaves is kindness, caring, wisdom and good humor among many other things. I really can't find all the words I'd like to say, except to say that I hope you will contact me again and leave your number as I can tell you many stories from my days at the Equitable and working for your Dad that I'm sure you have not heard, and that would make you laugh. He would like to be remembered by making people laugh. Did he ever tell you that on Halloween he called me into his office, had a gorilla mask on, and was smoking a cigar through the mask?! I still remember laughing so hard! And he loved to eat those raw onion sandwiches between 2 pieces of rye, smoke and cigar in his closed office, and then call me in to ask me a question. I was almost killed at a young age by the fumes! I remember so many stories now. Take care. I am sure he is holding you in his arms right now.

Hello! I extend my condolences to Cathy Mc Quillan and family on the loss of your father and grandfather. I met and visited only once with Mr. Chuck Sauer and fortunately it was before the onset of Alzheimers. I was very impressed because he was such a nice man. kind, generous and friendly. To top it off he was a baseball fan and White Sox fan too. I will be making a contribution in his memory to the Alzhemies Association.

Dear Family,
We have many fond memories of Chuck and his family. As neighbors, we shared many wondeful times together the seven years that we lived in Arlington Hts. You could always count on Chuck and Dick playing a game of golf early Saturday morings. Mike and Jim were inseperable as youngsters playing with their hot wheels. All of you children were greatly admired and very cordial. God Bless each of you in the loss of your Dad. With our love, Dot & Dick Kieffer

Family was always very important to Chuck and he was very proud of all of his family. I know everyone will cherish the memories. His unique humor and verbal quips will long be remembered.
May God keep you and bless you during this period of sadness. You are in our prayers.
