Chuck was one of the best humans that I have had the pleasure of learning from and I really enjoyed his perspective. Last spring, while we were all quarantined, the road started blowing out down by our shared beach here in Spring Lake. Ever handy, "Chuckles" was up early in the morning to fix the problem. When a neighbor down the way started hollering  at him "hey, the township is gonna fix it" Chuck's reply was awesome. I just happened to be out on my deck drinking coffee to hear with great joy Chuck's response: "they ain't here yet and I'm bored and can help". To me, just a singular moment to exemplify what a great guy Chuck was. I aspire to be as great of a father, friend and neighbor that Chuck was. My condolences to my very good friends the McCarthy family, simply put Chuck was the bomb and we will miss him dearly  yet remember his teachings. 

We were saddened to learn of Chuck's passing.  We only met him when he visited his son and family in Spring Lake but he instantly fit in with the "beach group" and we loved his sense of humor! He also could fix any damn thing on the planet and helped us immensely with our drainage problem last summer. It will be hard not to see his smiling face riding his bike up the street this summer.  Sending heartfelt condolences to his family and friends.

The One and the Only! Our Chuckles, who had a heart bigger than the world. He had a story about everything. He always made me smile!   A dear friend, a kind soul and I was lucky enough to share some good times with you. I will miss you my friend, but you will always be in my heart, always.  Sandie Schmitt, Spring Lake, MI
