Doug and I were so surprised and saddened when we heard. Of course, living in Cummings, we never hear things until late. Please let us know if there is anything we can do. I can't imagine what you are going through with such a deep loss. We have so many cherished memories of our friendship of years ago. You are all in our thoughts and prayers.

Chuck it was fun back in the day when we would CRUISE around town, me in my Moms ford and we knew when you showed up. It was the NOMAD. I moved away from there an started anew but will always remember those times. God probably has a NOMAD waiting w/nitros to burn. See ya soon. Bob Yaw

Chuck has been my mechanic since the day I moved here from New Jersey in 2000. He was an honest man and always went above and beyond to help me and my husband with all of our car issues. Chuck was the best in his field and I sent many customers to him. I loved his sense of humor, his laugh, his care and especially for the way he made us feel like we were the most important customers he had.We love you Chuck, thank you for many years of wonderful service. God bless you Stange family.

He liked a good joke. He liked a bad joke. He even liked me, and that made me happy.

A loss to our community, arguably the best auto service advisor in Beaufort County. We will sorely miss you Chuck. Our condolences to his family, may you rest in peace.

Although I conducted business with Chuck on a regular basis, our relationship made me feel more of a friend than a business associate. I could always depend on Chuck to give me straight, honest scoop without any frills and we always departed with a hand shake or humorous exchange of words. Me and my son often joked about going to see “Mr. Chuck” because we knew it would result with some laughter. I'll always remember Chuck's quick wit and sense of humor that always made my visits pleasurable. My heart goes out to his family and all those that were close to him. You will be truly missed. Rest in peace my friend. Rich

Don and I had a tremendous respect for Chuck. We take all of our cars to Auto Care Center and always felt he was fair and trustworthy and went out of his way to make things right. We will miss him greatly - especially the banter between him and Lisa. May you rest in peace. Don and Donna McLean

Celebrating a Life well lived. We will cherish the memories forever.
Chuck, sometimes we wish we could have, should have. I've know you since we were teenagers working at the SOC station. We have some good times. Some of the stuff we won't discuss here! We will meet again and laugh at the things we did. We had some fun!
Rest in Peace my friend.

I knew Chuck from Auto Care Center. He was a straight up guy, and you just knew you could trust what he was telling you. If a guy is excellent in his work, he's probably excellent in the other areas of his life too, and the comments from those that knew him better certainly reflect that. Chuck, you will be missed. Vaya con Dios.

Chuck was my greatest friend, in the 20 plus years I knew him we never had a harsh word. I'm going to miss his quick wit and crazy humor and his almost daily 530am text of ( yo yo bro you there) just to mess with me. You were taken way to soon from your family and friends for reasons we will never understand, but someday we meet again, until then RIP!! Gary n Carolyn

I have known Chuck and Sharon since I was a child, they were like a 2nd family to my sisters and I, when I learned of this news I was in a state of shock. Chuck was always laughing and making jokes, to make us laugh. Summers were always a blast during the 4th,and they always had beautiful dogs. Chuck will always be remembered, loved, and missed terribly. Until we meet again, we love you!!

I mainly know of Chuck through the Auto Care Center. He was an honest and humorous man and was a delight to work with. Once you met him you would trust him with your life.
If my wife and I will miss him dearly then I cannot imagine what his loving family is feeling. Our hearts go out to them all.

Chuck and I were friends for 25 years. I first met him when he went to work with Snap On Tools. He and I were two good natured bulls in a china shop. I will miss his humor and our daily banter.... Thoughts and prayers for his family in this tragic loss. I will indeed miss him...

Dearest Chuck,
I know you are looking down onto your family, While they are grieving your lost,as well as your friends. Yet I still can't wrap my hands around the fact that you were taken from so soon. You are a one in a million kind of guy. When god made you he did a outstanding job! Now that he has chosen to take you back home. Without NO warning, We all are left here asking ourselves and God WHY? Yet I know in all due time we shall have our answer. Till then we can't help not too ask or think it. Your personalty just glowed in everything that you did or touch. If something was upsetting someone you knew what to say and how too say it to put a smile on there face. So now it's my turn to do the same for you and your family! I'm so honored to have met you. Also to have been able to call you a friend. I don't want you to worry about anything now.I want you to rest in peace with a clear heart and mind. To everyone you left back here I know they will be care for and taken care of. So you can be at peace with yourself knowing that. I'm going too miss your laughs, your corny jokes, you giving everyone heck! Most of all I'm going to miss you! With that being said Chuck I'm NOT going to say good bye,Yet say I'll see you soon my friend... Always,
Stacy Jewell

They say everything happens for a reason yet we keep asking our self why? I also want to thank ya'll for sharing your husband,father,son,brother,uncle,
nephew with me and all of his friends. Chuck is amazing person I know his life will live on here through his two amazing children. With that being said Thank you again and God bless ALL of you in this darkest hour.
