Our deepest sympathy to all. Chuck made a great impact on all our lives as a friend , neighbor and community leader. He always gave his all. He loved cooking for church events and the springinfest. His deer processing was top notch and he was always reading and researching keeping current with events. He loved playing horseshoes. We enjoyed several meals with him and Jeanne at rhetoric and he never met a cookie that he did not like. He had a sweet tooth!  He will be missed but I hope he inspired others as he did us and many memories to cherish. #14 from: Eva Myers Prospect Thu, Mar 19, 2026 at 9:11 AM I spent my tween and teen years as part of the Methodist church growing up in Claibourne.
