Chuck was a friend from second grade on. I spent many weekends with his little brother Mackie and him in Cedar Canyon as we had boyhood adventures. I saw him in Independence a few years back and he said "You've made my day coming to see me." His family was always kind to me. Chuck was funny, fun, kind, generous, and a wonderful friend.
