Dear Kathy and family,
I am so very sorry to hear that Chuck has passed on. While I am sure that he will be looking down upon you from Heaven, he will be sorely missed. May God Bless you. You are all in my thoughts and prayers.
Dear Shrader Family, everyone at CNB Bank who knew Chuck thought of him as a gentleman and a gentle man; he was practical and pragmatic and always saw the good in people; one time he invited a bunch of us to Moon River for poker and it snowed about 14 inches that night – we had a blast. Chuck will be sorely missed. Mark Breakey

Words can not describe my sadness and sympathy I have for you! Chuck was always a great man who always had time for everyone.
