My dearest family:
I was unable to speak at dads service and I am extremely regretful .
I would like to express what an honor it was to be Chuck's daughter in law . He was the only father I knew for the past 18 years since my dads death . I was lucky to have the 2 best dads ever . I will cherish every memory .
Dad was the toughest person I ever met . He was a fighter that simply could not fight any longer . Dad beat all the odds and every day with him was a blessing !
My heart goes out to all of you . It won't get better but with much time it will become easier . Together with friends and family we will all get through this difficult time . I love all of you and I am here for all of you .


DAD I LOVE YOU MISS YOU AND WILL NEVER FORGET YOU !!!!!!!

To my dearest family, some things I'd like to say...
but first of all, to let you know, that I arrived okay.
I'm writing this from heaven. Here I dwell with God above.
Here, there's no more tears of sadness; here is just eternal love.

Please do not be unhappy just because I'm out of sight.
Remember that I'm with you every morning, noon and night.
That day I had to leave you when my life on earth was through,
God picked me up and hugged me and He said, "I welcome you."

It's good to have you back again; you were missed while you were gone.
As for your dearest family, they'll be here later on.
I need you here badly; you're part of my plan.
There's so much that we have to do, to help our mortal man."

God gave me a list of things, that he wished for me to do.
And foremost on the list, was to watch and care for you.
And when you lie in bed at night, the day's chores put to flight.
God and I are closest to you....in the middle of the night.

When you think of my life on earth, and all those loving years
because you are only human, they are bound to bring you tears.
But do not be afraid to cry; it does relieve the pain.
Remember there would be no flowers, unless there was some rain.

I wish that I could tell you all that God has planned.
But if I were to tell you, you wouldn't understand.
But one thing is for certain, though my life on earth is o'er.
I'm closer to you now, than I ever was before.

There are many rocky roads ahead of you and many hills to climb;
but together we can do it by taking one day at a time.
It was always my philosophy and I'd like it for you too...
that as you give unto the world, the world will give to you.

If you can help somebody who's in sorrow and pain,
then you can say to God at night......"My day was not in vain."
And now I am contented....that my life has been worthwhile,
knowing as I passed along the way, I made somebody smile.

So if you meet somebody who is sad and feeling low,
just lend a hand to pick him up, as on your way you go.
When you're walking down the street, and you've got me on your mind;
I'm walking in your footsteps only half a step behind.

And when it's time for you to go.... from that body to be free,
remember you're not going.....you're coming here to me.

Karen and family,

The last time I saw Chuck he held my hand as we were talking, his warmth of his kind heart went thru me.

I remember when I worked with Karen, talking to Chuck time to time calling in, his quick wit and kidding always put a smile on my face.

Certainly hope you can remember all the great memories and take time to get used to your loss.
