CHARLES WILDER

The Curtises have been blessed to know our loving neighbor, Charles, and his beloved family for decades. Charles' kindness and spirit will always be in our hearts. Prayers for this decent, kind man.

It was such a pleasure getting to work with Charles over the years. He was always in great spirits whenever I saw him. I was so heartbroken to hear the news. May his memory be a blessing to those lucky enough to know him. My sincere condolences to the entire Wilder family.

I had the sincere pleasure of knowing Charlie from 1975 on, and we worked together at Texasgulf (later Elf Aquitaine America) for many years. He had a keen legal mind, an unfailing sense of humor and an ability to get to the heart of very complex problems quicker than the rest of us. His memory is a blessing.

I worked with Charlie in producing programs for our Grace Choral Society of Brooklyn, when we were just developing our chorus. He was always cheerful and helpful, and Ellie welcomed guests at the door for our concerts, too. Everybody loved Charlie and his son, Michael, as they sang bass for many years in our chorus. I am thankful that Charlie and Ellie had a good life together. My sincere condolences to all the family. We cherish the memory of this good man.

Charles Wilder was a wonderful human being with a seemingly endless supply of good humor and good will for all. My sincere condolences to everyone in his family, as well as to all his friends and admirers.
