I am so sorry to hear about Charles' (Tack's) death. I am a Middletown school system classmate of Charles, we grew up in the same neighborhood and always enjoyed our class reunions. The reunion committee was trying to find him in the past few years, I hope they were successful before he passed.

You and your family have my deepest sympathy.

I remember you. My family lived in Dayton on Marion Street. We could walk from our house to yours and visit with your children. Our mothers were sisters. Your mom, Corrine was my favorite Aunt. We shared the same birthday month.
Your son, Charles Allen III, we use to call "Peaty". We are about the same age.
I know you grew up in a home where
people worked hard, were respected and walked the talk as Christians.
