Your passion, your desire to always bring value to all situations and your giggle are forever in my heart and mind.
Thank you for all those gifts you shared with me, as these are so treasured!
I love you and miss you!
Say hello and Kiss my Mom, and Nana for me!
Love,
Patti

Erin I’m so sorry for your loss. Your Dad was part of the vanishing generation of strong , caring, service oriented men. He was loved and respected by so many that I hope your fondest memories of him, and your Mom will always make you smile.

The Irish Blessing for Charlie - one of the best!
"May the road rise to meet you,
May the wind be always at your back,
May the sun shine warm upon your face,
and the rain fall soft upon your fields,
and until we meet again,
May God hold you in the hollow of His hand."

We met Charles over 10 years ago at the Borgata . He and Tish would sit and play Keno and one day they started a conversation with us. We developed a strong and loyal friendship from that day on. We frequently dined with Charles and Tish. When Charles was having problems with his knee, we made sure to wait on him and get him his soup, main course and dessert at the Amphora. He always ordered a large orange juice. We shared many stories over the years. He had a sparkle in his eyes when he would chuckle at something funny. He was a patient old fashioned gentleman. Always dressed smartly. We enjoyed weekly phone calls with him. Always sent him cards for every occasion so he would know we were always thinking of him and of course his dear wife. Charlie you will be sorely missed by so many. Our sympathy to dear Tish, his children and grand children. Our hearts are broken. Rest In Peace dear friend
