Not sure what to say?

Hello dear friend, You were terribly missed at our recent class reunion, but your generous spirit and hearty laugh remain within us all!

So sorry to hear of Charles´ passing. I met Charles in the mid-1980s when he was an oaround the cornero neighbor when I had my first apartment after returning to Birmingham after getting my first college degree at the Capstone. He was very kind and gracious and his hearty, fully-committed belly laugh was inviting. We lost touch probably around 2001 or so, but I´d run into him at a play or concert and he´d always greet me with that squinted-eyes grin that was his trademark and a half...

I am truly sorry to hear this news. Charles was always a bright spot in my day when I would work with him at SouthTrust Bank. He was truly kind and caring to employees and customers alike. My sincere sympathy to Charles friends and family.

I am saddened to learn of Charles´s passing. He was not only my boss at SouthTrust Bank, Mountain Brook Branch for many years, he was a dear friend. Rest In Peace.

Charlie you´re my oldest buddy I miss seeing you and hope to see you again one day it´s been great to have been your buddy for a long time

I would like to extend my condolences to the Hawkins family in this time of grief. May the peace of God comfort and strengthen you during this most difficult time.

When I moved to Alex City and BRHS in 1963, I was lucky to land in a circle of friends that included Charles. He is in all my memories of fun times in high school, and I´ve never met anyone like him since! Such a big heart and hearty laughter! My deep sympathy and appreciation to all his family and friends who were there to surround and love this wonderful man over the years.

I would like to extend my deepest sympathy in behalf of the Hawkins family in this time of grief. May the peace of God comfort and strenghten you during this difficult time.
