Condolences to Chuck's Family! I was a friend of his without a doubt. We met in the beverage industry and went through similar life struggles together. We have kept in touch over the years and would spend a lot of time on the phone together. Chuck was a firm believer in Christ. There is no doubt! He was always fast to give his opinion on anything that pertaining to Family Country and Religion. I so enjoyed our time shared and I am heart broken by his passing! Some people just belong in heaven and I see he is there now. You will be dearly missed Chuck and I will pray for God's support to the family in this time of loss!

I am so sorry for the loss of Chuck, and so glad that he is no longer sick and hurting. I know it is harder to lose our loved ones when they have been suffering while at the same time knowing they are never going to have to go thru health battles on this earth. I rejoice with you in knowing he is with his HEAVENLY FATHER, waiting the rest of his loved ones to join him there, while he is reunited with all his grandparents and other family and friends he has been missing on this earth. I will always remember the adventures and misadventures we shared when we were young children. I especially remember we did a whole lot of playing with cars and trucks under the big shade tree. I pray that you will find strength and comfort in your faith, his faith and your precious memories. My love to all.
