I worked my first "tax season" job for Charles while I was a student a Georgia Tech. I learned more about critical thinking and entrepreneurship in my brief tenure with Charles then I would have under any other mentor. My condolences to his family.

Charles was such a delightful person and he was always a favorite of mine! I loved his brain and his great sense of humor. He will be missed! We stay in Highlands in the summer so we are sorry to have missed the funeral but know we send our love and sympathy to you and all family! Snow and Billy benedict
