Growing up on Copper Kettle Lane, we created some amazing childhood memories. Charlie was a great friend as a kid and I´m so happy I was able to reconnect with him just last year. It meant everything that he reached out and it meant even more that he kept reaching out. From our younger years of playing street hockey in the summer and pond hockey in the winter, to just recently having lunches at crossroads pub, Charlie is someone I will truly never forget and I will always miss dearly. My sincere condolences to his family as we lost a great man way too soon.

Dave, Kathy and family. I can´t find the words to properly express my condolences to you at your loss of Charlie. I won´t say I can´t imagine what you are going through because 15 years ago, I lost my son. It´s not something you ever get over, but it´s something you get through (with the help of friends and family). I pray that God blesses your family and gives you strength to "get through".

Mr & Mrs Byrne, i worked at Starkweather & Shepley for 18 yrs and got to know Charlie. I was heartbroken to hear about his passing at such a young age. His brother David was my manager in personal lines for the last 3 yrs prior to my retirement. My prayers are with you both and your family & and I ask God to give you the strength to get thru this horrific experience. My Mom went thru this 6 yrs ago when my brother passed at 63 yrs old. I lost her l less than a yr ago at 95 yrs old. My sincere condolences to the entire family and may he rest in peace.
