My condolences to Chuck's immediate family. Haven't seen him since my father Al (his uncle) passed away in 2002. Hopefully he's playing those long fairways and infinite greens in that place beyond our world. I have positive memories of visiting Chuck's home way back in the 1960's with his brothers Rick and "Little" Reggie and, of course, Uncle Reggie and Aunt Ginny.

I attended St. Aloysius High School with Chuck. I'll always remember his energetic, playful nature. He loved getting involved with a group of guys... talking and laughing. He was so quick to smile, expressing his natural joy. I really enjoyed being around him.
