My grandfather was really special to me, we shared alot of memories through the 19 years of my life. He has seen me accomplish a lot of things such as marriage, and graduating high school and just too many things to mention. I love my grandpa and will greatly miss him, I hope to see him on the other side some day.
With love,
his grandson

My daughter Sarah and I are very sad to hear of Chuck's passing. Chuck was one of our favorite people. Most people as they age find it harder to speak to young people. Chuck never did. He had a gift of relating to people of any background or age. Sarah and I chose stamp collecting as our father/daughter hobby when she was about 4 years old (she's a sophomore at Murry State now). Her favorite thing was to attend the auctions and meetings the stamp club had and Chuck would make a special effort to find items for the auction children would like. I know they brought much less from children than he paid for them. My daughter especially liked dogs and bugs on stamps. When my daughter and I think of Chuck we both smile. He lit up a room with his smile and warm personality. He will be missed.

I only knew Chuch through the Thoroughbred Stamp Club, but that was good enough. Chuck always had a friendly greeting for everyone and a grin on his face. I know he will be missed.

It is with great sadness that I learned about uncle Chuck`s departure. Because of the distance that separates us, I did not get a chance to know him as well as I wished to but, I will always remember him as a generous person with a great sense of humour. My parents Julienne and Ronald had great respect for uncle Chuck.
My deepest sympathy to aunt Lorraine, Diane, Donna, Denise, the grand and great grand children.
Your niece, Suzanne Gratton, Ottawa, Canada.

The lives of all who knew him are deminished by Chuck's passing. His kindness and generosity will be remembered by all who knew him. As a fellow stamp collector I was much blessed to count him as one of my friends.
