My prayers are with you. I knew Scott and taught the Gallagher children. I also went to Bishop England High School with Charles. My family still lives in Charleston and is active at BEHS as well as the Catholic community. We are all praying for you. May God bless you.

Manning,
I was devastated by this news about Charles. He was one of my very favorite ever Clemson students and a super editor of The Tiger. I have kept up with Charles through the years but met his wife only recently at the 100th anniversary of the student paper.
What can I do in his honor and memory? Such a great guy. He will certainly be missed by many.
