Debbie, I am sorry for the loss of your father. I didn’t know him, but I knew your brother Tim and you. You were both very sweet and caring people. I am sure that was passed down from your father and mother. I’ll be praying for you and your family. Love, Judy Richardson Wagner

Chuck’s family, It broke my heart that you had to lose such a wonderful, caring Dad. I worked for him at Chuck’s market. He taught me so much! How to be a hard worker, I always thought of him as a person who really cared about everyone! I thought the world of this man and was very lucky to know his family and work with him! I thank all of you for sharing him with me!! Susie Zielska Covey
