My condolences to the Thomas family. I knew Chuck from Wildwood NJ. He was a terrific guy and I was deeply shocked to get the news of his passing. Chuck was so proud of his family and often spoke of his wife and son. I am so sorry for your loss. Charlie will be in our hearts and memories forever. Praying for your family. Lee (Unger) Hutchison
