My deep sympathies for this loss. Your family was very generous and open to me at a critical time in my life and career. Your father stands out in my mind as the most legendary and accomplished man I have had the honor to know.

The Cella family and Murch family have been friends for three generations. Charlie was always so generous to our family. He shared many adventures with my father and wonderful memories with both our parents at Oaklawn. Our sincerest sympathy. Laura Murch Moran. (Princeton NJ) Stephen Murch (St. Louis MO)

The passing of a truly amazing personality. Both affable and aggressive in his pursuits of both business and fun. I would watch Charles and Ted Simmons play singles squash on afternoons at The Racquet Club and it was like viewing the mechanics of a fine swiss watch. At the end of their set, both were not even breathing hard, but watching this contest of competition left me exhausted. My sincere sympathies to his family, and condolences to all his many friends that just loved and respected...

Mr. Cella was a noble man and I enjoyed his company. The obituary was a great insight to this incredible man.Its been many years since seeing him but I felt like I was a friend as he made so many throughout the years.
