I remember Charles was at one of my little league baseball games (1987) and I hit a single. After the inning concluded and I came back to the bench, Charles told me "I should have gotten two out of it", meaning a double. Charles reached for more and I admire that positive quality. I am sorry for your loss Sarah and family! I hope all is well.

I am so sorry to hear about Charlie. He was one of my dad's (Peter Bilodeau) good friends.
