15 years you've walked with Jesus in Heaven, what a glorious time you must live. You are missed in Bible study each week. Many others have joined you now. What a splendid reunion that must be. I continue to feel so blessed to have known you and your devoted friends Judy and Allen. Continue enjoying Glory.

Charles you are so missed in Sunday Bible Study class. We frequently ponder a scripture and smile as we realize you are with the One with the answers. You are a man of tall stature and your memory lives on.

Charles,
You are missed in the Vines Bible Study class. Your presence was such a blessing and your insight so valued. We know today you walk with Jesus and have the answers to the questions we often discussed. See you again one day.

Charles was a man of courage and love. He was an inspiration to so many that never even met him personally. I know that GOD has welcomed him into his arms, and that he no longer needs the wheels he had here, but has the feet GOD has given him to keep GOD's word going. He can run kneel and jump for joy in the house of GOD. We will miss you.

My sincere sympathy on the lost of Charles. I know he will be missed. But I know he is happy being with the Lord.

To Mr. Bordonie & Charles' family and friends- We are truly sorry for the loss of Charles amongst us and pray for the peace that passes all understanding and strength by the Grace of God as our lives here on earth go on. Charles was a phenomenal man and an inspiration to all who had the privilege to know him. We remember him so confidently, boldly, and willingly looking forward to the day he would meet his Lord and Savior. We can smile today knowing he has done just that and that he is standing tall. In our Bible study class we often spoke of having a better understanding of God's Word when we made it to Heaven. Charles now has that advantage and we know he is consumed with overflowing joy and praise. Charles will be sorely missed amongst us and we pray all find comfort and strength knowing he is amongst Heavenly Hosts.

To the Bordonie Family:
Charles was a wonderful friend and co-worker. We used to talk everyday at work and it was evident that he knew God and that he was a child of God. Charles is at peace now and I pray that God will comfort each of you as only He can. Be blessed.
