Teri, Erin, Sara, Barry & Daniel I wish to offer my deepest condolences for your loss.
I will be thinking of you all tomorrow.

My memories of Charlie will always be his warm welcome and hospitality to myself (and other members of my family) 'The Irish McClaffertys' when we came to visit Philly.
It was a good many years ago now, but still seems like only yesterday, when the smiling Charlie showed me all the sites on a very informative tour of his cherished hometown!

May you rest in peace Charlie.
