Chuck Mauk
April 2nd, 2009
Chuck was sprawled on the pavement and bleeding near his bicycle in a parking lot a few blocks from home. He had gone to a nearby store for candy and gum, an almost daily ritual.
Sad story about someone I actually knew fairly well. He lived one street over and I spent the night at his house once about a year before this happened. He introduced the song “Bad to the Bone” to me – I had never heard it at that time. He was the super cool kid everybody liked. A tragic event that happened when we were both in the 7th grade. I hope it will one day be solved but I fear it won’t.
