To the CW's and all Schwanda family members,
In addition to remembering Uncle Chuck's love of golf and golf fashion, his devotion to his family, I will always remember cousin Bruce's toast a few years back, at the family reunion. He and all of our aunts, uncles, and parents are truly members of the greatest generation. We all learned so much from them. Uncle Chuck has left a special collection of memories in my heart and for Don who only knew him for 13 years. Our prayers are of thanksgiving for his life here and eternity, Aunt Jean, and your family. May your tears and loss quickly turn to the warm memories of so many wonderful years with him. All our love, Erin and Don (go UConn women's hoop! : )

You will never be forgotten, Uncle Chuck. You're thoughtfulness that you showed our family while our daughter was still in the NICU, was appreciated. Thank you.

Our condolences to our family as we all mourn this great man.

Our condolences go to all of Charlie's family. His cheerfulness and kindness will certainly be missed.
We so much enjoyed his springtime visits when he brought his planters to be filled with flowers to place around his condo yard.

Charlie'. dedication to his church and his community is remarkable and an inspiration to many. We will miss him.

Joan, my deepest condolences to you and your family in this time of need. He used to say hi to me each time I went into the Stafford Savings Bank to cash my check from Johnson's Mill next door.

Joan-
My condolences to you and your family. I remember when your Dad first accepted the position at the Savings Bank. I accompanied you to the jewelry store, where you purchased a tie tack, to wish him well in his new job. I guess that turned out to be a good career move. He certainly was a pillar of the community. You are all very fortunate to have had him around for such a large portion of your lives.
Eileen
