Chuck always had a good word or thought..

In remembering Chuck…
He always had the best smile upon greeting you. 
The last time I saw Chuck was when Jacqueline Jarr and I visited him shortly before he moved to Arizona. 
We had a memorable visit and so glad we could share laughter as we always did.

I recently tried calling Chuck to see how he was doing and the phone went to a Verizon message. I immediately call our mutual friend Jacqueline Jarr .  She also had the same message . 
We visited Chuck when he was in Naperville at an assistant living facility before he moved to Arizona .  We left with hope that we would continue to stay in touch.  Chuck always sent a message on holidays and we talked for long periods when we had a chance .
I knew him because of Jacqueline who grew up in Forest View with Chuck.  
Their parents were good friends as well.
We all lost touch in the 80’s as we all got married and were building careers & raising children.  
We reconnected in about 2012 after running into Chuck in a neighborhood bar one evening. 
We kept in touch after and would often meet for drink along the way. 
Chuck always greeted with a wide smile and great conversation. 
Conversation usually began with how proud he was of his children and their accomplishments. 

I have to admit , it was really hard to see the memorial notice ...
I couldn’t quite get through the call with Jacqueline without tears. 
I’m sure we will drum up our stories in the  weeks to come.

I’m extending my thoughts of good energy to Chuck’s family and know he will be an angel on your shoulder always .

My condolences to your family.

When we met last year, Charlie enjoyed recalling people and food
from Berwyn. He talked about his kids and what they were doing.
He was in good spirits.

My condolences to Chuck's family. I knew Chuck through his years as a member of Local 701 IBEW, DuPage County IL. He was the gentle giant who always gave it his all from his days starting as a Residential Trainee, to Residential Wireman and then on to getting his Journeyman Wireman card. As a Business Agent for 701 and then later Assistant Administrator in the Fringe Benefits office I got to know Chuck fairly well and assisted him over the years and then through his retirement from Local 701. I was particularly moved when he made time to come to my retirement in 2012, we had a good long talk at the end of the evening. It was so  good to see him doing well.
