Mr. Charles Kling and the beautiful Kling family, please accept my prayers, condolences, and the greatest expressions of sympathy to you and family. I had you as Latin teacher. I learned not only about Ancient Rome , but also learned to be a Christian for others, I learned from the very best . I´m certain Peter would be proud of his Mother , Father, and his family. Thank you for being a such a mentor, teacher and man for others!

My interaction is as was with many, on the Pickleball courts. He was always such a gentleman that represented all the positive qualities of the game of pickleball. So sad for your family.
