I knew Charlie when he worked in the Plans and Programs division in the "Math Lab." He was a super person and always happy. I feel honored to call him a friend. He will be greatly missed, and remembered.

Barbara,
I am so sorry to hear of the loss of Charlie. While I cannot pretend to know how you feel, I do know this:
At the very moment we lose a loved one, that is the furthest from them we will ever be. Every moment after that just means we are getting closer to the Grand Reunion. May the Lord bless Charlie and all his loved ones!
