    Dear Born Family, I was very sorry to learn of Chuck's sudden passing. I remember my visits to Manhattan (to Mike & Rhonda's) when I lived in Salina and having meals at Chuck and Pat's when all the grandchildren were just babies. Chuck was always so nice and always had a warm smile! Please know that you are in our prayers for peace and healing through such a difficult time. Sincerely, Brenda Sweeney(Zweygardt)

    Nothing said can ever ease the pain of losing someone you love. I only want to express the thanks I have for a man who helped me put a roof over my head at a very difficult time for me. Chuck, I will always be grateful for the kind way you and Sherry have treated me over the years. You will be missed.
