My deepest sympathy. He was a good man and a great friend. He will be missed by all of us who had the pleasure of knowing him.
Chuck and Jane arranged a blind date between Connie and Tim, leading to our marriage one week before Chuck and Jane were married. The four of us were in each others weddings.
Eternal rest grant unto Chuck O Lord, and let perpetual light shine upon him.
I worked with Chuck in the brokerage industry for years and I can say he was an absolute pleasure to work with. He had the calmest demeanor out of anybody I knew. . He was truly missed by us all when he decided to retire but we all enjoyed going to his retirement party and hearing about his retirement plans. May his family find comfort in knowing he was a really good man and will not be forgotten. Chuck, rest in peace my good man and Godspeed
Hi Jane and Family- I always enjoyed my chats with Chuck. And loved how he would welcome me into ‘Graeve family’ conversations. Cancer s****.. Peace to you all ♥️
Jane and family, Chuck will be so missed. He was a good man and always helping others. He was a big help to me when Mike was out of town and I had a mechanical problem. Chuck came down to fix it every time. It was so nice having such great friends up the street. I feel so blessed we were able to reconnect and enjoy your visits to St Louis. God bless you Chuck and grant you eternal rest. 🙏🙏🙏
Jane and Family,

Jane and family,
We are so sorry to hear of Chuck’s passing. We know from a mutual couple, Rand and Ginger, that he had a difficult time at the end. We know that God took one of the good ones home. Blessings to you and the family.

My deepest sympathy to all family and friends. Chuck was a good man and he will be missed by all who had the pleasure of knowing him. Thinking of you all during this difficult time.
So very sorry to hear of Chucks passing. While living in Omaha my wife Kathy and I along with our three boys were great friends with Chuck and Jane and we both have such vivid memories or our times together. Our prayers go out to the entire Skoumal family during this time of grief.
I haven’t spoken to Chuck since the 1980’s but it seems like yesterday. We were friends through grade school, high school, joined the navy together and went to college together. We shared some great memories. God bless you Chuck and your entire family.
Great man and my deepest sympathies for Chuck’s family. I worked with Chuck for many years and he was a blast to work with and always on top of his game. No challenge was too high for Chuck and whenever there was a complicated issue (especially tax related), he was the go to! I also remember so many events such as our work “whiffle-ball” tournaments and Chuck was just a competitor. Great friend and colleague and he will be missed greatly.
