C. E. And I were in art classes together at Ruskin High School in the sixties. He was always fun and very creative and energetic. We lost touch after school but, I often thought of him and wonderful he kept at his artwork. I miss those days and miss the time we spent in art classes.

Visited and hung out with my classmate CE in Las Vegas several years ago & met his wife(DDS) and admired beautiful home. He added character as a legend to the Class of 1978 like no other!

CE and I worked at Menorah together such a long time ago. We would as occasion permit, go on rounds and visit the nurses station. We would flirt with the nurses, chat tell them stories play practical jokes and just plain had fun working together. In 1977 we bought matching Norton commando motorcycles. We rode them all over Missouri. We had lots of fun riding together. We went water skiing as often as time would permit. Whenever we had girlfriend problems we would sit and talk it out for hours. He saw me laugh and he saw me cry. He was a great friend. I loved him lots and I will miss him. My deepest sympathy to Jane, Christopher, Emma, Anita and Linda. God Bless you C.E. you will always be in my thoughts. You will be missed. Take care C.E. I look forward to the day when we will meet again.

I love you lots,
Your friend always,
Fred

May God bless you and your family in this time of sorrow. I remember scouring the streets of South Kansas City, along with our friend Scott Rupert, on our motorcycles. C.E. usually led the pack since his 305 cc Honda was superior to our 90 cc Hondas. A point that was made when we went to the KC quarter-mile dragstrip. C.E. removed his exhaust baffles a move we believed would increase the horsepower and subsequently beat a Plymouth 426 is a race. What Joy and memory for a replay of our "Wonder Years" Although, at that time motorcycle helmets were out of style, not required and make me think someone upstairs was looking out for us. I will long remember C.E. for his curly blond hair, everpresent smile and infectuous laugh. Miss you amigo

My deepest sympathy to the family of C.E. I went to Ruskin High School with him. He was a fun person and I am so sorry to learn of his passing. May he rest in eternal peace.

My husband, Dallas, and I are saddened to read of C.E.'s passing. We knew him when he was working at the lab in Menorah Medical Center while he attended dental school. In those days the students made extra money by crafting jewelry and C.E. made our wedding bands. We have received numerous compliments over the years because of the unusual design. He will be in our prayers.
