Condolences & Tributes
Add A CondolenceWOW. He was a good friend. I remember we used to share and have conversations at Lamar Regal Room, in Atlanta. That Afro no one else had class and dignity like Chuck. He was a class act. We also used to meet at the Busy Bee and Clendenin's on Hunter Street across from Pascals.
