I want to thank you all again, tomorrow will be service at Truro church. I've gotten many prayers and well wishes and I appreciate them all. Thank you. Erik.

Charles was a beloved and highly respected presence in the US Geological Survey, the Water Resources Division Retirees group, and in Truro Church. He was so caring and helpful when my own Dad passed away in 2012. His bravery in the face of cancer was phenomenal. He will be greatly missed. Blessings and peace to his family, and thank you for sharing him with us. Pam Agnew (USGS and Truro) and Betty Rapp (wife of John Rapp, WRD/USGS and Truro)

My wife Mary and I both worked at USGS and knew Charles. He was a good friend and will be missed.

I worked for Charles when he was the Water DIS Chief at USGS in Reston. He was a terrific boss and one of the smartest people I have ever known. Charles was a person of great character with a true moral compass. The lessons I learned from Charles all those years ago continue to have a positive influence on my own career, and for that I will always be grateful. May he Rest in Peace.

I didn't really know you that well but you were So great to me. I love you uncle charles! Rest in heaven!

I didn't know you, but you raised a wonderful son. Erik is a real friend to me. God Bless your whole family.

I worked for Charles in 2000 at the NBC. He was a wonderful leader. Brave and resilient when diagnosed with cancer, he put up a good fight. In the end he lost that fight and showed great courage. I miss him greatly. Rest in peace, Charles!

I was certainly blessed to have you as my brother in law. Such a loving and caring man. I know you and Carole are so happy to be reunited again. My loving thoughts to your family and friends.

Charles Nethaway brought so many gifts to my life. He was my mentor and my friend. I will never forget him. He will remain in my heart forever. Rest in piece my good friend Charles.
