    Chuck , a awesome brother-in-law, I felt like I connected with him, he approached me and said, "do you want to go to a Red Sox game, it was awesome, he offered hi function hall for my wedding, he was a kind person with a big heart! We used to talk early in the morning on his way to work, he told me this guy would walk to work and he saw him, he stopped and ask him for a ride, that's how kind he was! He would give something he had and not have nothing, over the summer I made time to see him in the hospital and saw him in a lot of pain, it was sad that was not Chuck, he was a strong person who can fight off anything out this he could not, I will you Chuck, RIP, put in a good word for me in heaven!

    To Chuckie's wife and family, I was so sad to see that he had passed away. I knew Chuckie in high school and what a great person he was. I've been reading the condolences from his friends and it is clear, the sweet, kind, funny, friendly young guy I knew in high school and beyond, never changed. Always so sweet and thoughtful each time I saw him after high school. Sending you all much love and comfort. May God rest his soul and give you all peace. Hold strong to your memories, they will sustain you.

    Chuck was the best at NESH, always looking out for me once I started at Sinai. He will be missed greatly.

    To the Catalonia family, I knew Chuck growing up in school and from the restaurant, I would make sure to stop in and see him when I went up to visit my parents in Rockland and I would always look for him when I went to visit, he was a good guy. Soar with the other angels my friend. Until we meet again. R. I. P.

    Oh Chuck, where do I begin... You were such a special man. You had a caring and compassion like no other person. You cared about literally everyone, and anyone who knew you, knew they had found a true friend in you. Lord knows if they were also a Boston Sports Fan, then they had found a kindred spirit in you! My heartfelt sympathy goes out to your loving wife and family. They should take comfort in knowing what a decent and compassionate man you were, and how many lives you touched and changed for the better. You were so kind, sweet and SO humble. While some measure a person's worth in monetary measurements, most will agree that doesn't measure someone's worth or their legacy. It's the many people who loved you, the many lives you touched and the many who were better for just knowing you. By this measure, you were a very rich man, and your legacy will live on through the lives you touched. The friendships and relationships you had here will transcend this world's connection to you. You were an angel on earth to all of the patients at NESH who loved seeing you each day, whose lives you brightened, and who still ask for you. Then there are all your coworkers at NESH who considered you their friend, and who were routing for you, so very hard, that this hurts us worse than any kick in the gut could ever hurt. Thank you for being the kind, sweet, gentle man you were. Thank you for having the best one-liners when we needed to laugh. I feel blessed for having known you. I will never eat soup without thinking of you, and I trust you will be making the big guy up there laugh his butt off more than he has in a while! Until we meet again my friend, May god hold you and your family in the palms of his hands. Love & miss you buddy

    Chuck was the kind of person that immediately made you feel like you've known him your whole life. He had this way of brightening up your day, even if his wasn't going so well.
