    Chuck's Family~ I am so sorry for your loss. I read of Chuck's passing in the paper. I went to school with him when he came to Mingo. I remember him being a very nice boy. I think of him when I'm back in Mingo & drive by the house on Longview, but hadn't seen him since graduation. Sincerely, Diane Gould-Jordan Blacklick, OH
