Read MoreJP, I just heard today of Charlie's passing. My heart goes out to you, as I always knew you two to be such a close couple. I will always remember Charlie's great sense of humor, that he shared with all of us on more than one occasion at Cadillac Jack's and then at Rickey T's. I hope you will let your memories be part of your healing, that is what always works for me.
Sincerely, Chris Berry

We extend our deepest sympathies. We first met Charlie nearly 30 years ago at a Bucs Game. We continued getting season tickets until we both got sick of the bad football and could not give the tickets away. Over the years, Charlie helped us with our family's legal matters. We would meet occasionally for drinks and discuss what was happening in our lives. We always appreciated his input and he will be missed by everyone who knew him.

Charlie, We always gave you as much lip as you handed out.. You were one in a million and a special brother-in-law. We were happy you and JP were able to come visit at Christmas (even though you fussed the whole time about how far we lived.) We'll really miss you at family gatherings and seeing you sitting at Bee and Hal's bar and being your ornary self. You loved Treasure Island and now that is where you will always remain.
Love your favorite sister and brother-in-law.

How quick 15 years went by. JP the last time we saw you and Charlie it was Jessica's wedding. It seems like yesterday. We are so very sorry that you've lost your best friend. Charlie was very very special.

Dear Dad,
You left this world too soon. I am regretful that we did not live closer and have more time together. You taught me to have confidence in myself and to strive for my best. You left me your great personality and sense of humor. I am glad I was able to be with you in the end. We had "our moment" and I feel peaceful that we expressed our love for each other.
Forever your daughter,
Laurie
