I have missed and will miss seeing Chuck sitting in Church with Carroll as I return the gifts from the altar to the usher’s room.
May God Bless him and his family.
My sympathy’s to the entire family of Chuck. I knew him on UAL since 1949, and what a wonderful person he was. He livened up any group and was throughly liked by all. We are all saddened by his departure.
Bon Voyage Chuck and Happy Landing.
Extending sincere sympathy and compassion for those that feel tugs at the heartstrings as a loved one, colleague, or friend slips beyond the veil; leaving the rest of us standing in awe as the flight of a lifetime lifts off the runway of Life.
We will remember him always!!
Will miss Chuck at coffee and all of his jokes he sent via e-mail.
Have a safe trip Chuck!

Bud was the husband of my late wife’s friend Carroll. I knew him well. We had many good times together.
