To the Breyer family:
So sorry to see that Charlie passed away. I spent 8 months as the acting postmaster in Sumneytown back in 2009 at which time I first met Charlie. He would get his newspaper out front in the machine & stop in & chat. I retired that year & often thought about him. His friendship holds a special place in my heart. It was a pleasure knowing him.
