Mrs. Chumbley, I was at the visitation tonight and I wanted to meet you, but with all the people there, I didn't get the chance. I worked with Red a few years before he retired. I always liked talking with him, he was always someone you could talk with. Red was a person that when he would be away from work, on vacation or just not at work, he was missed. He is in a much better place, and I know he will be deeply missed.
Dear Ina and Family,
So sorry to hear about your loss. I found this poem in my dad's file cabinet after he died. It gave me much comfort. Hope it gives you some, also. With deepest sympathy, Tracy and Mike
To Those I love and those who love me
When I am gone, release me, let me go
I have so many things to see and do..
You mustn't tie yourself to me with tears
Be happy that we had so many years
I gave you my love, you can only guess
How much you gave to me in happiness
I thank you for the love you each have shown
But now it's time I traveled alone
So grieve a while for me, if grieve you must
Then let your grief be comforted trust
It's only for a little while that we must part
So bless the memories within your heart
I won't be far away, for life goes on
So, if you need me, call and I will come
Though you can't see or touch me. I'll be near
And if you listen with your heart, you'll hear
All of my love around you soft and clear
And then,when you must come this way alone,
I'll greet you with a smile and "welcome home"
Dear Ina and Family,
Although we never knew your Father well, I believe that his family is a reflection of himself. Knowing that, I am reminded of a verse by Marion L Burton that goes; Character is formed, not by laws, commands, and decrees, but by quiet influence, unconscious suggestion and personal guidance. Charles Chumbley was a man of Great Character.
We continue to remember you in our Prayers.
May God Give you Peace,
Diana & Myron
Dear Bobby,
Our thoughts and prayers are with you in this time of sorrow. May time heal your aching heart and be replaced with the joy in knowing that Chuck is in a better place with God, and oneday we will all be together once again.
Our deepest sympathy,
Mike, Fanoula, Brad and Diane
