DearClaire: I will miss Charlie and his discussions around Boston and elections. There isn't a problem that we didn't solve. The elections and Town Meetings in Walpole havn't been the same for me without Charlie. He will always be remembered in my office.

Mr. Brassil,
Sir, I didn't know you, but I would just like to say thank you for your service and sacrifice for our Country when you served in the U.S. Army during WW II and for being a member of the Greatest Generation. And to your family and loved ones, I wish to extend my deepest sympathy.

Claire and family:
How I will miss seeing Charlie's face at NDC. I recently left there and said I would visit. Charlie thought I wouldn't, but he sure was surprised when I would pop in and give him his kiss on his cheek. He always had kind words and a smile, even when he was so sick. My love and sympathy go to all of you.
