Charlie was one of the best guys. He would go pick my mom up instead of her walking to Bucks Deli that she owned. He would come in daily and always have a great story. If you worked with or knew Charlie you are a lucky person. He will be missed. Our thoughts and prayers to the family. Wish we could attend the services to hear the stories and celebrate his life. RIP our dear friend.
