Not sure what to say?

My wife and I have only known Charles and the Adams a few years, but we were so grateful to Charles for hiring us. He was a kind and funny man, who always knew how to drive us crazy and make us laugh at the same time. Charles taught me how to work hard and truly appreciate art. The Adams will continue to be in our prayers.

Thinking of your family. Love you all

Charles was a friend for most of my life. He was always there to talk and listen. He will be missed by all.

Mary Agnes and family, I’m thinking of you’ll! I have some of his treasured art work! He was so talented! Lots of love to you!

Sheryl and I worked on many stained glass projects with Charles over the years. He was always pleasant to work with. Charles was also one of my best friends. He will be missed by us and many more.
We would like to send our sympathies to his family.
