I remember buying grass hay from Chuck. I had just adopted some goats shortly after moving to Marseilles. I was from the suburbs. Chuck showed me around his farm and I got to see and pet all the animals! I will always cherish that. I can see his farm's silo from my front window. I live about 3 miles away. I always remember that day! Hugs to all his family.
