My heartfelt sympathies go out to the family and friends during this difficult time. I hope that the promise in 1 Thessalonians 4:14 can bring comfort. Knowing that there's a hope for the ones we have lost in death can be so reassuring. -

My condolences to all of Chucky's family on his untimely passing. I have not seen him in fifty years and, therefore, will always remember him as a happy, energetic blond-aired, blue-eyed little boy.

Chico was one of my closest friends while growing up in the "Patch" section of Port Blanchard.
Many years have passed since then but, many great memories will remain forever.
RIP Chico.
