Chuck's Florida family (brother,
James) are happy for the times we were able to be together over the miles. As my son, Mark, said , "He was the nicest man I have ever
known." And for me , his sister-in-law, a truly good man whom I loved. Mary Jo and his children and grandchildren can be proud.
May he rest in the nearer presence of Our Lord. With our
love for all who mourn his loss,
Kathy Bass and family
