Charles M. Schodowski

As we all grow older, we tend to cherish the good memories of life. "Big Chuck" is one of those special memories that temporarily bring our youth back to us. RIP "Big Chuck". And a Big Thank You.

The Big Chuck, Hoolahan and even the Kilbossy Kid will forever be with Cleveland and in our hearts! God Bless

I grew up imagining that Big Chuck, Hoolihan, Little John, and Art Lafredo were my 4 crazy, lovable uncles, and I got to hang out with them every Friday night. Such truly great memories. I live in Kansas now so I just found out about Big Chuck. Man, talk about a lump in my throat. If I could talk to him now I would say thank you for always making us laugh, giving us a special place to hang out, and making us all feel like we were all one big family. You could genuinely feel the love coming through the screen. To his family and all of his closest friends, my thoughts and prayers go out to you. They just don´t them like Big Chuck anymore!

There was not a time when you didn´t make us laugh.....we stayed up late to watch, which brighten our day and lives.

Thank you for the memories! You influenced (at least) one generation of Clevelanders, just being your kind, generous, humorous self.

May God help your family in the grief over the loss of a great man, until you´re all reunited in the Kingdom of Heaven.

Thank you again Big Chuck! My sincere condolences to your family.

My sister and I grew up watching ghoulardi, big chuck, hoolihan, and lil John . It was the highlight of our weekend. Watched for so many years they became like friends and I wept at his passing. May God comfort his family, friends and fans in a way that only he can. Our deepest sympathy Cliff, Jade and Laura.

Grief can be so hard, but our special memories help us cope. Remembering you and your loved one today and always.

I grew up with you, Hooley, and John. You were a huge part of what made my childhood awesome! You will be sorely missed.

This man made my childhood amazing. I still talk about him and the show today. Condolences to his family.

To the Schodowski family ....

Thank you ....thank you very much, for sharing him with us all.

A person of his caliber .... is a Genuine blessing.

My sincerest and heartfelt condolences,

Mike R.

Our deepest condolences to the family. May you be comforted and blessed in your time of sorrow.

We really enjoyed Chuck's talents and his humorous take on things. One of my fondest memories of growing up in Ohio.

I remember watching him with Little John and Houlihan in the 70s and 80s...his humor was a highlight of my childhood. God bless.

My condolences to the family. I don't really know how to say this, but he was a big part of my childhood watching him on Friday nights. He was great at making people laugh. I have fond memories of the skits he did.

Big Chuck - I'm from Lakewood, and used to watch you with Hoolihan and later with Little John. I laughed very hard at your book too. Thanks for all the good memories, and you and your family will be in my prayers.

Our deepest condolences to the Schodowski family. He was a true legend. My husband and I watched him act in our teenage years. We loved him dearly! My God bring you all comfort during this difficult time.

Sincerely, The Dixon Family

Condolences to his family

I grew up watching you, "Big Chuck", with "Lil´ John" every Friday night. You became a part of my family. Popcorn, Coke, and that unforgettable laugh after a funny, off-the-wall skit. I knew it was the beginning of a fun weekend when your show came on. I was saddened to hear that you had passed on, but I know you are in a better place, enjoying laughs and good times with those who made Cleveland what it is. Thank you, Chuck, for being the person you were and sharing a lighter side of life. Rest in peace, my friend, and may your memory always bring a smile and be a blessing.

Our deepest sympathy to the Schodowski family. Chuck provided hours of laughs and entertainment to our family for many years. May you find comfort in his legacy as a wonderful person.
The Liptak family

I talked about his show worldwide. I represent all the generation X kids born in 1969 and onward who watched him every weekend, and looked forward to the show all week. When I was in this skit on Amherst TV, this is the look I learned to do from watching #BigChuck skits since the age of 6. He was the master of the double take and camera stare.
I was just his wannabe. My thoughts and rayers to his family. He was the brightest light in Cleveland. Miss X, Cleves first female horror movie host.

My deepest condolences on the passing of Big Chuck to his family and friends . He brought many laughs to many people in Friday nights. More than he realized. May he rest in Peace. He will be missed.

Sue T.

Big Chuck was a wonderful man, full of kindness and love. He treated everyone, even strangers, as friends. He will be greatly missed, but his work lives on. My thoughts and prayers are with your family.

R.I.P. Big Chuck. Thanks for the laughs!

I look back at my childhood and remember staying up late on Friday nights to watch Big Chuck and Hooligan, and later Big Chuck and little John.

Thank you so much for the memories! I truly believe that Chuck Schodowski touched more lives than he ever realized.

My sincere condolences to his family. May he rest in peace.

Prayers to the Schodowski family. Grew up in Cleveland and watching Hooligan and Big Chuck and Big Chuck and Lil John were there every weekend was a tradition!

Sending Love to everyone, RIP Big Chuck.

Thinking of the Schodowski family...I went to school with Michelle and Missy. You are in my thoughts and prayers.
