It was a great surprise to hear of Chucks passing. He was a good friend to all of us at the 5th Comm. reunions. He will be missed. I want to extend my deepest sympathy to you and to your family.
My thoughts and prayers are with you and the family. I know Chuck's death places a big void in your life but you are strong and will move on. No, things will never be the same but you will improve.
Remember that you have a lot of support from friends.
God Bless You.
We are so sorry for your loss and offer our heartfelt condolence. I knew him personally for several years. I have also lost a dear friend and brother. We know that words said or unsaid can never compensate for your loss. We can feel that he is in a better place and has shed those trials and tribulations that we, left behind must still endure. Remember that God knows best and may he who knows all and sees all wrap His ever loving arms around you and grant you the peace that you and the family so richly deserve. God Bless You All.
Dear Karen, I just saw in the NLR Times that your father had passed. I am so sorry for your loss. My prayers are with you and your family. May your dad rest in peace.
So sorry for your loss, he will be missed.

Chuck, you are truly one of a kind and in our minds you will never leave us. You and Mona were not only the greatest neighbors and friends but we truly think of you as family. Having you guys around the corner, sharing time with you at the German American club and talking politics made our lives richer, not to mention the monthly domino games. Say Hi to Jerry in heaven and enjoy seeing all your family and friends who have gone before you, we will see you again someday. God Bless you and Mona and all your loved ones
Mona,
My thoughts today are of you and my prayer is that God will provide you with strength and comfort. I am sad that it was not possible to be with you today. I will always remember my cousin Charles fondly and the laughs we shared and I can only imagine he is telling Jesus a joke right now.
Love,
Hazel
