Charlie has been my neighbor and friend since 2001. I remember the first time we spoke, I had been in the house next to him about a month, was trying to get the yard cut when the mower kept surging, he came over with a screw driver, made a few turns and said "there, try it now." The rest would be history. No one knows what that man meant to me and my kids, for us not to be family, it sure felt like it. The world just lost a truly incredible and wonderful man that cannot be replaced, they don't build them like him anymore. I love you Charlie
