1 Thessalonians 4:13-14
Brothers and sisters, we do not want you to be uninformed about those who sleep in death, so that you do not grieve like the rest of mankind, who have no hope. For we believe that Jesus died and rose again, and so we believe that God will bring with Jesus those who have fallen asleep in him.

Lynn,
I'll still garden, but will very much miss Charlie's advice and knowledge. I'll still give Addy her biscuit, but man am I going to miss Charlie's "get away you beggar!" He's in my heart, like you are too. Just knock on the door if you need anything.

God bless my sister and her family. Charlie was our friend first and then we were blessed to have him as our brotherinlaw we shared so many good and bad times and always came out of it closer. We were blessed to be there for each other and always able to laugh about it. Lyn you were blessed to have the extra kiss and your Charlie will be so missed. We all loved him so much
