It is with great regret that we have to make this announcement - but on Monday
morning one of Illinois best NPC athletes passed away - many of you may remember
Chuckie Durr.
He was well into his body building career back in the late
80's early 90's - when Kim first started her competition days in the Chicago
area. We had seen him compete numerous times and he was an awesome competitor.
One of the last times Kim and I saw Chuckie compete was about 4 years ago at the
North American - he won his class and many thought he could have won the
overall.
He was truly a great guy and fantastic athlete and our thoughts
and prayers go out to his family.
