Dear Aunt Carol,
I was truly saddened to hear of the death of Uncle Chuck. I remember the last time we were all together at dinner. It was such fun catching up on our lives. Time passes so quickly. Chuck is in heaven now with my Dad and Glenny watching over us. I will keep you, Tim and Julie in my prayers.

Dear Aunt Carol, Tim, Julie and family, I am so sorry to hear of Uncle Chuck's passing. I will always have fond memories of him, especially growing up in Chicago and summer vacations spent with you in Sparta. He was very thoughtful and kind to me. I greatly appreciate the times that he would fly with me back and forth from Chicago and Sparta , just so I would not have to fly alone to come for a visit. I also enjoyed the long rides from Chicago to Sparta too. All of us together having a great time. The last time I was able to see Uncle Chuck, was, I believe, the last time he visited Chicago, 1-2 years ago. We all had a wonderful dinner together, laughing and reminiscing. Uncle Chuck had a personality that was larger than life. He will be greatly missed.
