I have so many memories of Chuck. We worked together at Boring, we rode motorcycles, bowled in leagues (I still have my last place trophy). We golfed every Saturday for years. He was best man at my wedding, and a few years later, he and Linda  got married in our living room. We took many motorcycle trips to Missouri, Arkansas and Oklahoma. Something always happened involving Chuck. My favorite memory was from one of those trips to Branson. We were cruising across Table Rock Dam, when I looked in the rear view mirror to check on Chuck.  What I saw was Chuck, still on the bike, taking his full face helmet and throwing it.  I went back to see what happened. He somehow sucked a huge bumble bee inside the helmet and he was eye to eye with the beast. Rest in peace, Chuck.

Linda, you and Chuck were blessed with each other. Thank you for sharing your lives with us. I truly enjoyed your company and our conversations.  A good man with a big ❤️!
I have very fond memories of Chuck singing his Happy Birthday song to various members of the car club. What a hoot!  In time,, I hope to get to see him again and listen to him sing. 
Love you both! 

Linda so sorry for your loss I remember the fun we had at century 2 with the club that year we all had our cars in the arch and made the paper. Chuck will be remembered, God speed to Chuck as he drives his Chevelle into Heaven  Robert and Gretchen Cox

LOVE YOU BOTH Jack Blackwill

Linda, 
I am so sorry for your loss , I know that your heart is hurting and aches . I was honored to be a part of yours and Chucks lives . I always called you my adopted parents , and still feel the same way today. I have a few fave memories that I will cherish always .  One memory is going with you all to see the WSU basketball team tryouts :) I still have the shirt :) Another great one was when you had us come over for a swim and a cook out with my daughters . My most favorite and cherished memory will always be, when you all would call me on my birthday , and Chuck would sing Happy Birthday to me, you all never missed a year of my special day. It hurts my heart to know that I won't hear his voice anymore. I love you with all my heart . 
Keeping you in my thoughts and prayers 

Linda, we are so sorry to hear of Chuck's passing. Thoughts and prayers. Lot's of memories of car shows and work.

Chuck was always a pleasure  to visit with,  at Boeing and as a neighbor.  So sorry for Linda Jo,  
Hoyt and Jo
