Through Chuck's illness, his Council friends wanted to help in anyway we could. We prayed. We visited him in the hospital. We helped Donna and Chuck move. We had parties in his honor when he felt better. We cried when he hurt and we mourned him when he went to heaven. The one final thing that The Council could do for our dear friend was to provide the means for a monument of Michael's choosing. It was an honor and a privilege to know such a wonderful man - "All You Need Is Love".

We all miss you Chuckie......
