The family of Chuck Conrad would like to let you know that his work here is done. He received a call, an offer he couldn't refuse. An offer that comes with a huge sign on bonus in heaven, a reunion with family he has not seen in a long time. His new mission will take him to a place where he can still enjoy detailing cars, gardening, woodworking, building models, and watching the Minnesota Vikings. We want him to know he did a great job and wish him a safe journey. We will remember his smile, sense of humor, wit, pride in his church, and commitment to family.
