Description	How appropriate for this, "Gem," of a man to spend his last years owning a jewelry store. If the world were filled with hearts as large as Chuck and Norma. The world would be such a better place...Chuck's love, affection, kindness and thoughtfulness for every life he touched leave a myriad of lifelong memories...I remember working hard to convince Chuck to help with St. Joseph's, "Valuing your Sexuality," program back in the day...At first he was hesitant... then he consented (I kind of wouldn't let him say no, ; ) ) as is Chuck he poured his heart into the program with great humor and effort. When you walked into their jewelry store, you were met with love and greetings as if you just came home. I remember when he gifted my grandchildren with little angel pins from his store...Chuck I can see you in heaven right now...hugging the Lord, your loved ones, and departed friends. Every encounter with Chuck and Norma, one walked away feeling loved, accepted and encouraged to do the right thing and try harder...they didnt preach, they both just model(ed) it, regardless of their personal pain and hardships...Chuck you were amazing...Norma you are amazing... just be being true to God, yourselves and your faith. Norma, words fail me in condolences for the loss of your beloved husband, just no you all remain in my tender thoughts and have for all those years. "I expect to pass through this world but once. Any good thing, therefore, that I can do or any kindness I can show to any fellow human being let me do it now. Let me not defer nor neglect it for I shall not pass this way again." With Deepest respect and Love for you and your entire beautiful family. Gods blessings to you today and always. I am humbled by the Lord's gift to chose Chuck and you and your children to be in my life. Robin (Lincoln) Deethardt
