I knew Chuck as a court reporter for many years.  The obituary he wrote sounds so much like him– kind, gracious, humble, caring, and so very well done.  Others have written their own obits, but I have never before seen an obituary where the person writing it was so totally focused on others, rather than their own lives and accomplishments.  We all are less for his passing, but we are so much more for having had the opportunity to know Chuck.

Suzanne:  Chuck was my court reporter for many of the years during which I served on the Lancaster County Court of Common Pleas. I was very saddened to learn of his death and express my sincere sympathy for you and your family. Unfortunately, I could not attend the service.  He did an outstanding job for me throughout all of the years he worked for me. He was very loyal and trustworthy.   More than that and most importantly, he was a very close  friend.  I thoroughly enjoyed the many conversations we had in my chambers. I valued his friendship and I will miss him very much.     Judge Michael Georgeis

Dear Darlene and Suzanne,
I join you in mourning Chuck’s passing.  My brother and I have many fond memories of Chuck, mostly playing baseball and football in our backyard or yours as well as an occasional babysitter and to play with Queenie. He was a good athlete with exceptional coordination and a natural runner.  We had a good heart and was a very caring person. We even met up in Jerusalem on his first honeymoon and we went to the Dead Sea together.  we share in your loss and extend our condolences to you and your entire family. Thank you both for the extraordinary care and love you gave Chuck for many years  
Sincerely,
Marty and Bernie Bril

I’m so sorry to hear that Chuck has gone from his life here on earth but rejoice that he’s moved onto Eternal Life.  I worked with Chuck at the courthouse and always considered him a friend, even though I haven’t seen him in many years.  I send heartfelt condolences to his family.  I hope you can find comfort knowing you’ll see him again down the road.

Charles, I was so moved by your obit that you obviously wrote yourself.  We should all live our lives as you did to write our own obit which is really a eulogy of the life you lived. Although I didn’t know you personally, I recognize you as I too go to St. John Neumann.  Thank you for your words and wishing you and your family peace!

I love you, Chuck. ❤️ You were an angel to me.

One of the best compliments that you can pay anyone is to say the they are a good person.  It sounds like a small thing but takes a life time to build and nurture.  Chuck was as good a person that I have ever known. He was kind, compassionate, loving, a good listener and all of the other things the make up being a good person.  I count myself lucky to have had Chuck as my Pickleball partner, my joke buddy, my sage advisor but most importantly my friend.  Rest easy brother no one ever earned their way into to heaven more than you.   I will miss you.
