Charles D. Hoskins

My sincerest sympathies to Jessica and the family. I regret that I was unable to attend the services. Charles was always a gentleman in addition to being a fine lawyer. His public service was exemplary, and the practice of law was better because of the quality of his career's work. More importantly, he was a good man who made the world better for many of us who were able to share with him, even in a small way, in this life.

Sincerest condolences to your family. I was in drama club at Lindbergh High School with Charles, lots of productions and lots of fun. I am sorry I was unable to attend the services. I hope this donation in his memory and honor will bring some joy. I always thought of Charles as a class act, extremely intelligent, funny, and kind. National Public Radio seemed fitting. May you all find peace and comfort in your wonderful memories of a great human.

Charles was a classmate of mine. My prayers are with his family during this very difficult time.

Your dad made us all laugh so hard. We started being friends in high school. He let me play Dungeons and Dragons with all the guys. I did not know what the heck I was doing, but I know I had the time of my life laughing with those guys, especially your dad. He would quietly say something and keep talking and within minutes I would find myself holding my stomach begging him to stop. But you know he was funny. It takes a special man to bring all of these people together from all over. And that...

There's nothing else I could say about Charles that hasn't been stated above, except that he was my friend. Rest in peace, friend.
