We are so sorry to hear of Charlie's passing. We did not see it in the paper or we would have been there today. Charlie was always such a happy go lucky guy. Full of fun and always ready with a witty line for everyone. You were never around him that he didn't make you smile. You could always expect a big hug and maybe even a kiss too. We will miss you Charlie! Go play with the angels.

I will always remember Chuck's great sense of humor and quick wit. But I also remember his dedication to Caterpillar and his customers. God bless him and his family.

Dear Joan and Lynn; I was so sorry to read of Chucks passing today in the newspaper. We always thought he was such a nice man. Since we retired we spend the winter in Arizona. Our Prius, that he was always so fascinated with, stays in Arizona all year. We are very sorry for your loss. I know you will miss him deeply. You and Lynn are in our thoughts and prayers. The Lord will give you the strength to face the days ahead. Sincerely JR and Marlene Eller
