Uncle Chuck was always a second dad to Lisa and I, especially after ours was gone. It's hard for me to now say "Aunt Linda" without "Uncle Chuck" in the same sentence. The world is a little dimmer today, but the heavens are much brighter now.
Love always,
Leann

My heart is saddened today to learn of the passing of my (non-official) Uncle Chuck, I grew up calling him my Uncle since he was such a great, long time friend of my fathers I felt like he was truly a part of my family.

I am so sorry Aunt Linda for the loss of this wonderful man. I have some sense of solace today, knowing that my dad has his old buddy again to hang out with in heaven.

Thoughts, prayers and deepest sympathy.
