To the family of Charles Ammons from your former church members at Charity United Methodist...we are thinking about all of you all and the good memories that were made together.

I think of Charles every time I take Holy Communion to a brother or a sister. He gave me his personal Holy Communion set when I was in seminary as a gift. He has passed on to meet our Lord, but I know he is with us...and with me in a very special way. Thank you Charles, for a gift that has meant so much. Stephanie and I send our prayers and sympathy to Claudette and the family.

While we will all miss Charles we are assured that at long last he is healed and whole again. My prayers are with the family in his absence as they were with him while he was with us. God bless.

My heartfelt sympathy to the entire family. I have fond memories of all of you during your ministry at Epworth. Mr. Ammons was a warm, caring soul.
