I am sorry for your loss. It had been awhile since I had seen him, usually he would stop by on a Saturday evening back yard fire. I have tried to remember how I had met him, but it was so long ago I cannot. I remember him as a very good man who loved his family. Most of all he had the gift of gab. He will be missed.

Prayers for you all! Growing up in Lewistown I've know Chuck forever and then worked with him at Mitsubishi until I retired 2 weeks ago. I am so very sorry, just so hard to believe. He talked often of Julie and his family at work!
