Messages of Condolence
I”m very sorry about the passing of your dad. He was always a great guy to be around. I have many great memories of him, from our days on the farm. I know he’s in heaven with a beer in one hand and a fishing rod in the other.
Savannah: Bye Grandpa. We miss you, and we’re glad you had a good life. We hope you’re happy in heaven. We love you and miss you.
Wil: I miss you Big Grandpa. Love you.
Matt and Kim: Memory is a gift from God that death cannot destroy. (Kahil Gibron)
Rest in peace, thanks for the memories. We love you.

Like my Son Carmen, we have had a great loss Also my Daughter Carolyn, Son Bobby and Son Tom. He was a great brother and Uncle to all of us. He was in my wedding . He took me to my prom and was godfather to my first son. He will be missed.
It’s always difficult to express our feelings when a loved one passes; Chuck smile and love towards everyone around him is what I will always remember the most.
My first time at las Vegas was memorably thanks to Penny and Chuck’s invitation, I got to see and hear his knowledge and love for gambling. Chuck is now on GODs hand(s) with a ROYAL FLUSH.
