Trudy, there is not a day that goes by that I do not think of him. I will never forgive myself for letting so many years go by and loosing contact with both of you. Charlie and I had a special relationship, he was the brother I never had.
He will always be in my heart.

Remember meeting Charley in 7th grade. Thats when the fun started. I always envied his life long relationship with Trudy. I was happy he picked a profession that brought the best out of him. Good by my friend youll be sorely missed.

Dear Trudy,
I just learned of Charlies passing. I was so sorry to hear that sad news. He was one of the kindest men I ever met. We had such fun coaching together in those early years of women's football. We always said we should write a book! But we were too busy living and laughing our way through what was one of the most enjoyable coaching experiences of my life!
Looking back I realize that time was made special because it was shared with people like Charlie and you. I...
