Charles William Shaw

My beloved Charlie, was truly a gentle man, a trait I admired so very much. I will miss him so much, especially in the evening as we enjoyed the swing and shared our day, or on the "mountain". When I am up working on the "mountain" I keep seeing you walking up the path to join me. We have so many wonderful shared memories, Ireland, Hawaii, Fredricksburg and many more. All are so precious to me. Charlie was truely my hero as he went though the most difficult illness. He never complained or...

I only knew Charlie Shaw for a short time. Each time I talked with him I got a feeling of warmth. He made me laugh, he was a delight to be around.

Charlie was a joy to know and love. I loved it when he would drop by the office just to say hi - always lots of fun. I will miss his jokes and "Martha Stewart" talents. Gloria, you were *such* a blessing in his life, a gift from God. How wonderful for both of you that you shared your lives. We love you very much!

Precious Charlie,
You touched our lives in more ways than we can count. Your smile, laugh, sense of humor will rest in our hearts forever. Your exquisite pieces of art and literature will be treasured by our family forever. Thank you for blessings our lives in all the ways you did. We love you! The Mace Family

Our father was an extraordinary man;
a loving husband to our late mother
Gay, a caring and compassionate father and grandfather, and friend
to all. A ready and mighty laugh he had with a quick sence of humor. In this way he will be remembered, not glorifyingly but realistically,and sadly missed.
