Charlie and i both taught at Mission High School until left in 1959.We continued our association over the years as Members of an organization known as Reegan's Raiders. Every time we me it was if he had just talked together the day before. I always enjoyed the company of this gentleman as a friend and great teacher. God bless him. Jack Harrington

I am sorry for your loss. I believe Charles' wife was related to my grandmother Theresa Langbehn's. I recall going to their wedding in San Francisco. Charles certainly lived an active life.

I met Mr. Streckfuss at Mission Hi as a student. A gentleman and a scholar. I have been friends with him for all of this time with some of the organizations that I belonged to. He will be missed by all and prayers and thoughts to the family.
