Chuck & I worked together as kids 50 years ago at the "Jiffy Restaurant" owned by Linda's parents. He put in long hours to help them out and to make some money for his flying lessons. Rather mature for his age. I can't believe that skinny grill master with the white hat is gone, but I/m so glad he was able to realize his dream of being a pilot.

So very much sadden by the news of Chuck's passing. He was my sergeant while I worked as secretary for the Aviation Unit and he performed the marriage ceremony for my husband, Dave, and me in 1989. We had a lot of laughs. We've lost a great guy but he and Linda are together. Rest in Peace, Chuck and Linda.
