I'm so sorry to hear of Uncle Charlie passing. I was glad Bill and I got to see him at the West Point Convalescent Center during our last visit in May. I was happy to see he could wheel himself around in the wheelchair. We had a good conversation and he was in good spirits. He was one of my favorite uncles and he will be dearly missed.
Love,
Jane and Bill Haynes
