From the time I met Chuck on the first day of our college career in 1959, I have always admired his flair for life, his humor and laughter, his care and concern for others, and his commitment to his Lord. My condolences to Anne, Jana, and Sara, and all the family (the others of whom I have not had the opportunity to meet). We are strengthened by our resurrection faith. Rest in peace, brother. Not sure if this picture (of a picture) from 1960 college days will come through. Can you find Chuck?? . . . . . . . (Bottom left corner)

Chuck was a great neighbor and a special friend. I always enjoyed our in-depth discussions when we walked around the neighborhood or when chatting with him in the yard on a sunny day. You will be missed, Chuck! Anne, please know that our hearts go out to you. The last few weeks must have been excruciating.

You are with Jesus now! "Chuck" was one of the best ministers I ever had. He confirmed me along with Rev. Behrend. He loved the Lord, loved people and loved life! I pray I see him again in my journey! Condolences to the family and friends!
