Bradley -
We didn't have the pleasure in knowing your father, but if he was as wonderful a person as you are, then he was an amazing man. Know that your #1 fans will always be here for you.

Bruce and I are thinking and praying for your entire family. Chuck and Ellen, as always, we are here for you if there is anything you need, especially a shoulder to lean on. We have a fond memory of your Dad too... he made us laugh out loud when you guys got married. I will remember him with that warm smile on his face.

Calhoun family,
I wish to extend my deepest sympathy to you and your family.
I have fond memories of when your family lived on Greenford Drive in West End Manor. I remember we as kids would run around, while Chuck would be painting on of those dentist chairs he had in the garage. Lots of fond memories of those times. Hope to see you all on Friday.With love,

More than 25 years ago, my brother played baseball with Tim. His dad was always smiling, always had something nice to say. I was so sorry to see Chuck has passed away. Thoughts and prayers are with his entire family

To the family- the loss of Chuckie will effect all of us in different ways.
He was a loving man, and as far as I could see, he was a loving husband and father. I will remember him fondly for all the times he used to call the house before Ellen and Chuck got married. He would pretend he was Chuck, and just keep on talking. I always went along with him, because Chuck was usually right there at our house. He told great funny stories, and made us all laugh.
He will be dearly missed by lots of people, not only by his loving family
