I'd like to send sincere thoughts of support to Chuck's family. I never met Chuck although I had communicated with him numerous times. He had been very generous in helping with the maintanance of the Lick Run Cemetery. I know he was a kind and big-hearted man. My thoughts are with you.

Joanne and Robin,
Our thoughts and prayers are with you during this difficult time. We thank you for giving us the chance to come to your house on a few different occasions. You were very generous and opened your home to let us stay so that we didn't have to make the drive back to Addison, we will treasure our memories of Chuck and his great chicken barbeque. If you need anything please don't hesitate to ask, Robin was there for me when my father passed; I will be here for you both now. God bless.
