Was very sorry yesterday to hear of Chuck's passing. I've known him and Nancy since grade school at St. Mary's. At the time they lived a few houses down from my Grandma's house on Cook St. Reconnected with him a bit when I went to SMHS for my junior and senior years of high school. Chuck was one of those optomistic, always seemed to be happy guys who it was just enjoyable to be around.
I was really happy to see him at our 50th reunion and was hoping to see him at our 55th. I had no idea he was fighting cancer. If he had it at the time, he certainly did not let on. The world is a smaller and more staid place without him. Rest in peace my friend.
Muscio's Auto Body shop ...Chuck's dad owned it. So when I dented the side of my brothers car, I dashed over to Muscio's Auto Body. They fixed with like new, easily to deal with and understood my panic. Remember this, as I had to earn the money to pay for that mistake. Chuck learned a lot from is dad, imgaine on those fishing trip, foundations for life, work, family and MAGA principles.
John Allen sent me this photo of Chuck and his daughter and we both worked hard to get the right format that Class Creator would accept from facebook. I am so glad it finally, captured it. I think it says it all.....
Sharing in these losses......but filled up with wonderful memories of a live well-lived.
Chuck was always a good guy. The last time we got together was at his parents home. Chuck was working in Alaska and making income that would still be pretty good now. We all laughed when he said the reason he flew from Alaska to Santa Maria was to party. We cracked up that Santa Maria would be such an upgrade from Alaska.
Thank you, Eddie Rodrigues for posting the wonderful explanations behind Chuck's smile, twinkle in the eye, upbeat person who shared joy and a "chuckle" whenever we had a moment to say, "Hi."
My heartfelt condolences to Chuck's entire family and friends. The class of '68 was honored to have Chuck among us. RIP, our dear Chuck, you will be sorely missed.
Chuck Musio was one of a kind--his loss leaves a hole in our lives. Some people are larger than life and Chuck was one of them. He was always so respectful, caring, kind,and gentle with me. He made me feel so welcomed because I was new to Santa Maria High (Santa Maria city). His love and kindness crossed one's beliefs, race and stereotypes. His candor and sharp wit would always be accompanied with a certain twinkle in the eye and a warm smile that one couldn't help but reciprocate. Chuck worked tireslessly to enrich the lives of others. He was a conduit of joy, in life and in death. He always gave of himself to his family, friends, others, and community. I am so lucky to have had the pleasure of knowing him and being an old classmate of his. We'll miss him always. I send my deepest condolences to his family and love ones. Humbly, Edna Montes Ehleringer

I remember Chuck Mucscio's smile and friendliness in high school. I'm sad that he passed. I'm thinking of his family and praying for them.
