My condolences to the Pansecchi family.
I worked with Chuck at Curtis for a while and he was truly one of the best guys I've ever worked with. He was as much a friend as a co-worker. A hound dog of a man, he always kept going, no matter the obstacle. He didn't let physical limitations stop him from making his rounds (ever), from climbing that way-too-high ladder, or from climbing into that boiler (funny story). I could always count on Chuck in challenging times. There was so much more to Chuck's life than just the brief snippet that I was part of. He will be missed as a pillar of the community and an example to all. Rest in peace, Chuck.

I played ball for Chuck in 1961 in the Pittsfield Babe Ruth League (Adams Super Markets team). I enjoyed playing for him. Rest in Peace, Chuck, there's baseball in heaven!
In Sympathy,
