Chuck,I probably could write a book
about our adventures over the years.
I always considered you to be my Florida Brother.One thing you don't have to worry about is Brooke&Charlie.You gave them a lifetime of love in a short time.They have a ton of family&friends to watch over them.
So make sure you keep a seat open for me in the Muppet Balcony so we can do our routine again.
