The youngest of nine children,Chuck was talented and full of promise.More importantly,he was a good person,a just man. When I went to his funeral(葬禮),his father asked to speak with me.He told me that before Chucks death,he chose six items to bury with him.4. He told me that Chuck had always kept the piece because he liked the message I had written to him at the bottom of the last page.In that little note,I affirmed(肯定) his talent as a writer and I encouraged him to be responsible for the gift.5.
