Good Bye Chuck.....I have not seen you in many years and we are sad to hear of your passing. Chuck was someone we all grew up near in our neighborhood on Superior St. You were always friendly to me and my family and we know God has a special place in his kingdom for you. To Chuck's family, may the memories comfort you during a tough time and may God Bless you for your part in Chuck's life.

He was my neighbor for 15 years and he was a very good person. He will be missed greatly and I would like to let Nick know that my prayers are with you and the rest of your loved ones! God bless you all!

Charles and I went to school together in South Haven.. I remember him well and fondly and am so sorry to hear of his passing. I can say this with great sincerity: he had more who liked and appreciated him than family will ever know and maybe even more than he himself fully realized. I work in mental health services now but at the time, I didn't know of his condition and would not even have recongized the word. But it wouldn't have changed anyting for those who knew and cared about him, if we did know more. Wishing strength and comfort to surviving family.

I lived next door to Chuck (the opposite side of the Gills). Chuck was always polite and spoke kindly to us. I didn't mind giving him rides home and even slipped him a buck or two now and then. R.I.P. Chuckie...I'm pretty sure there's no mental illness in heaven!

When tommy & I played spider man at your house in town I always remember how you were the "jokester" telling funny stories and always with a smile on your face. My wife Earline recalls the same of you "Chucky" in high school. Although, many years have passed I continue to have fond memories of those days filled with adventure and wonder. I miss you both, and you will always be in my heart now and forever. Johann & Earline, Herman, & Vivian Shelton.

You are Chandi are spectacular! What a wounerfdl friend and companion you have, and to think she is a rescue dog. I'm so impressed. Dogs are so much smarter then most give them credit for..and you have done an awesome job, giving her love and teaching her to dance. I would love it if you had a moment to give me an idea of even how to begin to teach my border collie to dance. I hope you win!
