Charles M. Bayes

Charles could not do enough for anyone who crossed his path.
He loved and cherished our daughter which endeared him to us.
We will always love him as a son and friend. He was gracious and humble in victories and trials. We will honor and love him all our days. Tom and Mary Jo Kershisnik

Joan,
We all share in your sorrow and you are is our thoughts everyday. Emrys will miss his "Crazy Eights" partner. In memory of Charles, our family has instituted the "Charles deed of the day (CDD)" this can range from simply smiling at a stranger to helping out someone in need. May Charles memory live on.

Joan:Charlie was allways so happy and full of life although its sad he's gone when I think about him I smile from the crazy memories that we shared I feel great sorrow that we all have lost a good friend.

Uncle Charles... there are so many things that gave him the great personality of bringing a smile to everyone in his presance. I will truely miss spending all those Christmas's with him and learning those key secrets to playing checkers. So I might actual win for once. I will miss him and he will forever have a special place in my heart.

Aunt Joanie, Uncle Charles was truly amazing. I have always had such great respect for him, not because he was my uncle, but because he was such a great man. I always looked forward to talking to Charles and I learned greatly from the conversations that we had. Whether he was trying to buy me something, give me three forths of his dinner because "boy's growin' Joan," or just sitting and talking with him at family reunions, Charles will be greatly missed and I know everyone that ever knew him...

Joan,
Charles was a great friend of mine and helped me through some very difficult times. I could always count on Charles to chear me up and get me going again. He took the time and effort to stay in touch with me every couple of weeks just to let me know how he was doing and what was going on in his life. He always told me how lucky he was to have you as his wife and companion and he always said he did not know what he would do without you. Your husband loved you so much and did not mind...

joan, charlie was more like a brother then a friend. we could tell each other anything with out judging them. i think about him daily, plus some of our outings
which sure want put on paper hope to see you soon

May God bless you and your family in this time of sorrow.
