Not sure what to say?

As I sit here looking back of all the wonderful times that I have with Mr golston growing up as a Young Man he teach me how to be a man show him interrupts of heartburn man we just had fun times on the basketball court I just miss him dearly may he rest in peace in heaven

I think about my elementary coach Mr.Gholston all the time, I can hear him say, "We're running them Bouie we're running them".What a MAN.I learned a lot from playing for coach. I thought about coach just the other day.

I truly learned a lot from Mr.Gholston,I can hear him now saying we're running them Bouie, we're running them.l was so hurt to hear about his passing,I will never forget him.

Christmas 2017 at his Sister-in-law Ida Campbell's house.

I was blessed to know Mr. Gholston from Norwood Elementary when I did my student teaching and later when I became a teacher. I thought he was the principal because he wore many hats. He was such a caring person. He was always willing to help us (teachers and students). He will be missed!!

May Almighty God and his son Jesus Christ bless you and your family in this time of sorrow. John 17:3

My world was made better by the short time we had with Uncle Charlie. He praised & loved my grandson Khalil, who looked up to him & was proud to learn about his uncle's service to our people and his Father. Our hearts are heavy, but we look forward to seeing you again. Love you Uncle Charlie, from Sondra, Briana & Khalil.

Kenneth Langford, he was a legend and a icon for the black community; mainly Norwood Elementary School, he was loved, remembered, and will be missed.

RIH Coach my prayers are with your family
