Very sorry to hear this. Met him at Cruise In when I still had my 87. Was a really nice guy who loved Corvettes, especially C4's

A member of the east Tennessee Smoky Mountain Cruisers back in that group's heydays. Well liked, well respected and fun guy to be around.

Chuck was a good friend, we always made sure to meet up at the Cruise In and enjoy dinner and especially dessert! Always great conversations of just about anything and everything going on in our lives.
Rest in Peace my Brother.

A snapshot of Chuck from 12/21/2002. Back then, we were Smoky Mountain Cruisers. Just like in this picture, he always wore a smile and had a friendly, welcoming demeanor. We'll miss you, Brother.
