I'm not sure who in the family might remember me. I'm Art Anderson's son Wayne. We use to live just up the street on rt43 back in the 50's. One of my closest friends was Charles. I know we lost him in the 60s. I found your dad's obituary just by chance. I'm so sorry for your loss. I plan on seeing both your Dad and Mom and Chucky in God's psalms 83:18, paradise here on earth soon. Wayne Anderson
