Ralph and I enjoyed many a meal with Chuck at Holt Senior Care. When the tulips bloomed out front this year, I thought about him. In past years he gave a daily progress report once the plants started emerging. He made sure I got a meal, if they didn't deliver it in a timely manner. He was on top of things always--until COVID 19 stopped allowing visitors so I don't know what happened then. He enriched our lives in so many ways.

I am so sorry to hear of Chuck's passing. He was such a joy to sit with at the senior home and such a help with Paul. I missed not being able to visit Chuck these past months. He was a true gentleman and part of a wonderful family. My thoughts and prayers are with Clara, Terry and the rest of the family.

It's been many years, however, I have very fond memories of Chuck from working with him at University Oldsmobile. May God strengthen you and your family during these times.

My heart is so broken. Chuck was a great man and I will miss our talks and his hugs. Taking care of Chuck was truly one of the most rewarding opportunities I've ever had. All my love to his family, especially Clara and Terry. May God heal bless you with peace and comfort during this time.

I am so sorry for your loss. Chuck was very special to me. I helped clean his room at the nursing home. Chuck was the first person that I would see in the morning when I would come to work. I know that you are not supposed to have favorites, but Chuck was one of mine. I really miss him dearly and my heart goes out to his family.
