Message: Mr. Chuck was the very first neighbor that I met when I moved into the neighborhood. He came over and introduced himself to me and my mother and gave me his business card. Over the years, he’d talk to me about my lawn and compliment me on how my yard looked. He would usually end those conversations by telling me that he was going to catch up with me because he likes a pretty lawn! My family and I extend our sincerest condolences to the family and loved ones of Mr. Charles White. May each of you receive God’s peace and comfort during this season and beyond. Mr. Chuck will be missed.

Message: Rest well Chuck. You were the best neighbor and friend I could ever ask for. Thanks for the stories and laughs we shared. I remember the days you parked your vehicle with the signs on it in the driveway and you said Hello neighbor and introduced yourself. I appreciate your stories, and your laughter will be missed. It was good to hear you say I got your six be careful out there. Keep a watch over us as you truly earned your wings.
