I just want to say that of all the South Suburban Hospital special events I have attended with my husband, Chuck always came across to me as one of the most down to earth people in the room. He was a hard-working "regular guy", and was so friendly and likable. Chuck, I will miss seeing you in your tux at the next event in October. Sympathies to all family and friends. Teri, we love you.
