26 Nov 2020I have such fond memories of Chuck. From when I first met him, he always greeted me in the Name of the Lord, with a big smile on his face. After his beloved Ruby passed, he just wanted to go Home! To Estelle, Doug, and David, may the love of friends bring you comfort, and the love of God bring you peace!
