Chuck Barris Gong Show - Friend of the Society of Professional Locksmiths (SOPL)

​Chuck Barris died on March 21, 2017, of natural causes at his home in Palisades, New York at the age of 87.  He was a friend of the Society of Professional Locksmiths.  He was my friend and friends to everyone in my generation.  A sweet gentle and humble man. His smile and spirit made mornings at the local deli a trip down memory lane leaving everyone smiling, happy and laughing.  We will miss you Chuck.
A smile starts on the lips, a grin spreads to the eyes, a chuckle comes from the belly; but a good laugh bursts forth from the soul, overflows, and bubbles all around.

A friends dad went on the Gong Show, he was a dancing chicken and he played a kazoo. Chuck kept asking him to dance over and over.The poor old guy was having the time of his life but we all thought he was going to have a heart attack. Chuck really new how to get the most out of people. It was a riot to watch.
Rest in peace Chuck, you will be missed.
