Dear Linda & Family,
Wayne & I were sad to hear that Chuck has passed away. I know these last several years were tough, but I also know that the good years were REALLY good & that he loved you all dearly. Hopefully your good memories will help.
Wayne & I really enjoyed our years hanging out with Chuck at Osterhout Lake. He taught me how to power shift when I was 17. We all explored “haunted” houses together, along with lots of other mischief. He was a fun friend to be around. I know how he loved the Lord & I’m sure he was welcomed with a smile & hug. Our sympathy to you all.
