Not sure what to say?

Just seeing this today - knew Charlie very well and even drove him to Scranton one time . Tried to contact 3-4 years back and knew he was living with Jacqui or Jessie, but he had moved from South Shore.
1 of the 2 smartest people I ever met and a very good friend back then at BU.
