Chuck was such a kind person and I enjoyed talking to him about aviation. He will be missed. My condolences.

Chuck was a long time member and past President of the Cedar Rapids Kiwanis. I recall his spirit of service and worked with him on several projects over the years. It was a privilege to know him. Your grief is shared by many.

Chuck lived four houses up from us. Every year at Pinewood Derby time he served as me and my twin’s interim father. I will always remember the joy of participating. Thank you Chuck.2sw
