To the Pollex family, our thoughts and prayers are with all of you. Chuck was a special person and made friends with most that he met. He was definitely an intelligent man and shared it with his friends. Judy and myself were lucky enough to couples bowl with Chuck and Sharon for more than 15 years, alot of fun. I was also lucky enough to coach Little League and Senior League with Chuck as our sons were growing up, many good times. Chuck will certainly be missed by many, but he in a better place looking down on all of us. RIP Chuck, Dennis&Judy
