Not sure what to say?

Mr. Viccellio was the epitome of a "Southern Gentleman." I first met him many years ago when I worked at The Chamber as Joe Cironi's Assistant. I remember his big smile, soft voice, and kindness. When he found out that Raleigh Newman was my dad and Father Edward Richard is my first cousin, he always asked about each of them, (even years after I left The Chamber) showing genuine concern.

I was on Krewe of Contraband's court in 2001 when he was our king. I remember him being very kind to us princesses that year. My condolences and prayers are with his family during this time.

To Sue Gay and all the family. We are so very sorry for your loss. God be with all of you.

Charlie was wonderful friend and a great neighbor for serval years we lived together in Lake Charles. Our Condolences.

Wonderful person!

On behalf of The Chamber SWLA, our deepest sympathy to Joanna and your family. Charlie served as a longtime board member and Chairman of the Board. He also was awarded the Civic Service Award which lets you know he was held in such high esteem by not only the Chamber, but also by the community. He will be missed but always remembered.

Worked with Charlie. Great Italiano! Was always so very kind. He will be missed. RIP, sir.
