Dear Reynolds Family,

I am sorry for your loss. May his long and fruitful life and all your fond memories bring you peace and joy.

He was such a kind man who kept an even keel. One of the only Torio Health Club members to be there from day one until the end! I still remember him well into his 80s doing head stands on the wrestling mat. What a nice guy - God bless him and you all.

Chuck was a solid guy. He built Torio's Health Club in '57 which is where I made his acquaintance in '82. Thanks for all your sage advice over the years. God bless.

I was a 17 year old when I worked for him on a clean up crew Russ Louie was my supervisor and I worked with Mike Sweeney I am 60 now and those were very fond memories. He was a very hard working honest man. Rest in peace Chuck

Chuck was always a favorite cousin of mine and although we had our differences including age and Black lake, I was proud of him. My best and condolences to the whole family. Warm memories of Uncle Charlie who was a character. Wish I could have been closer to cousin Chuck. Keep me in your thoughts, Dr Jon Schriner
