Did not know Mr. Cyphers personally but I wanted to tell his family I am so sorry for your loss and I appreciate all the memories from my childhood. I am watching Major League right now and just reminiscing about my childhood. Thank you sir and R.I.P.

Chuck was a wonderful neighbor. He sure lived a full life. It was sad to see him die, but he was suffering toward the end and I saw little chance for recovery.

The only time I saw Chuck was around the time of our grandmother's funeral. I was 12 and he was 21 and leaving for CA to persue an acting career. RIP cousin
