Chuck's life has been warmly affected by Route 66 and the 66 books that make up the Bible. Having grown up in Oklahoma and Texas along Route 66 as a child, he experienced a nostalgic renaissance of interest in America's highway in his thirties and forties. That led to many journeys and conversations along portions of the Mother Road, and, ultimately, to make the complete 2400 mile trek with his wife, Ann. Now, in semi-retirement after forty years of church leadership, Chuck and Ann reside in the Dallas area to be near their son, daughter-in-law, and grandson. They appreciate daily opportunities to enjoy the Journey and encourage others to do the same!
