Chuck Balazs was a great, generous man with a huge heart. Anyone who knew him loved him, and was rewarded in turn with a friendship with a man who was loving, loyal, and willing to do anything he could to help you in any way. Chuck had a way of making everyone he met feel like a long-time friend, and he was someone you just wanted to sit with and throw back a few beers while laughing over stories about old times. He just had a personality and sense of humor that people were drawn to and wanted to be around.

Chuck was intelligent, clever, resourceful and as sharp-witted as they come. He spoke with a colorful vocabulary and was skilled in the use of sarcasm. He loved to work with his hands, whether it was working on cars and Harleys, or building adirondack chairs and bird houses. He loved the warm weather, the outdoors, and wildlife. He would often send pictures of the squirrels he fed and the deer that came through his yard. Chuck loved to ride Harleys with his daughter Dawn, son-in-law Tim, and countless friends taking in the scenery on the way to Sturgis, the Badlands, Daytona, Myrtle Beach, and so many other destinations. He also loved to ride in the memorial runs to honor the fallen servicemen and heroes who sacrificed their lives. He was a fan of history and enjoyed stopping to see historical sites and landmarks along the way on the rides.

Chuck's hobbies included boating and shark fishing in Florida, riding and wrenching on Harleys, leather crafting belts and holsters for friends and fellow servicemen, making home-made pies, cookies, and ice cream, enjoying time by himself in his state-of-the-art indoor basement firing range, watching NASCAR races, hanging out in the garage drinking beers with friends and family.

In his lifetime, Chuck was a son, a brother, a husband, a father, a favorite uncle, a papa to his grandkids, a friend to hundreds, an honorably discharged private in the Army after being stationed in Greenland, a plumber, a past president of the Police Masonic Fellowcraft Club of Ohio, a New Port Richey police officer, retired Deputy Sheriff for Cuyahoga County, and a master Googler and one of Amazon's most loyal customers.

During their 19 year marriage, Chuck and his first wife Del (Delores) had three kids to whom they passed on their good looks, intelligence, and many other qualities that contribute to their success. Chuck was extremely proud of his kids and their accomplishments. His oldest daughter Deanna is a Doctor of Veterinarian Medicine and lives with her husband and two daughters in Columbus, OH. Dawn, his younger daughter is a 911 Emergency Medical Dispatcher for Parma, Brooklyn, and Parma Heights and lives with her husband, two daughters, and son in Hinckley, OH. Chuck Jr, his son is an IT Director and lives with his wife in Cuyahoga Falls, OH.

People are often described as being "One-in-a-million" and Chuck Balazs was definately that. He broke the mold and is survived by a family and hundreds of friends who will always love and remember him for being the kind and generous man that he was. He had a winning smile that is hard to forget. In the last years of his life, Chuck struggled with COPD which he eventually surrendered to. During his stays in the hospital, the doctors and nurses who cared for him became an extended family who often went out of their way to keep each other updated on his well-being and kept in touch as if he were their own family. That is just the kind of man Chuck Balazs was. He was the life of the party.

Breathe easy Dad, we love you.

f I speak in the tongues of mortals and of angels, but do not have love, I am a noisy gong or a clanging cymbal. And if I have prophetic powers, and understand all mysteries and all knowledge, and if I have all faith, so as to remove mountains, but do not have love, I am nothing. If I give away all my possessions, and if I hand over my body so that I may boast, but do not have love, I gain nothing.

Love is patient; love is kind; love is not envious or boastful or arrogant or rude. It does not insist on its own way; it is not irritable or resentful; it does not rejoice in wrongdoing, but rejoices in the truth. It bears all things, believes all things, hopes all things, endures all things.

Love never ends. But as for prophecies, they will come to an end; as for tongues, they will cease; as for knowledge, it will come to an end. For we know only in part, and we prophesy only in part; but when the complete comes, the partial will come to an end. When I was a child, I spoke like a child, I thought like a child, I reasoned like a child; when I became an adult, I put an end to childish ways. For now we see in a mirror, dimly, but then we will see face to face. Now I know only in part; then I will know fully, even as I have been fully known. And now faith, hope, and love abide, these three; and the greatest of these is love.
