Tributes
"My memory of Chuck is of a shy boy I met in Fostoria when we were growing up. Our grandparents were siblings and we used to visit back and forth from Willard in Ohio. We didn?t keep in touch as teenagers but I wish we had as adults. Listening to the service I learned what an amazing man he became. Sending love from the Richards side of the family, Cecealia and Charlene. "
"Our thoughts and prayers are with Gillian, Ryan, Mrs. Jacob and family during this difficult time. Kara Cox"
"I have know Chuck for many years. He was a soft spoken man who felt deeply and was quietly generous and encouraging. I will truly miss the phone calls we shared from time to time now that those phone calls have now been ended, I look forward to seeing him again in heaven."
