Mr. Charles, You we're an inspiration to me at my lowest point in life. You were a true God send to me living outdoors and the things we talked about. Angela cried when I told her you passed. You always had a good inspirational parable to share and I liked your passion in the bible stories and your honesty in social, political and racial discussions we had. You were one of the three I couldn't understand how homelessness hit. Chris (hobo) passed away too I hear... I wouldn't have made it without you two. Neither of you will ever be forgotten in my lifetime. Thank You Sir! Yes. It's ok for dogs to eat chicken bones. We proved that with Stella many days. Haha. I miss you bro!
