Cynthia and family I just learned of Chuck's passing. Please accept my condolences for your loss, my prayers are with you and family. Chuck and I worked together at Cedar Springs and he was always willing to share his professional knowledge to help others. I moved to Las Vegas about 9 months ago. I will be thinking of you and wishing you comfort in the days ahead.
Warm regards, Bill Lewis
