Charlie was a great customer to our office(Finance). He never complained even if it was warranted....always smiled and remained patient. We are so fortunate to have known him through the 440 AW. Proud to have served.

Tom, I was a very good friend of your Mother. Please accept my deepest sympathy. I feel your pain from the bottom of my heart. Will be including you in my prayers. Cannot attend funeral - getting surgery that morning.

My sincere condolences to Barb and the family. May God rest and comfort them and accept Charlie into His loving arms.

Charlie was one of the top NCO's at the 440th for all the years I knew him. His Fuels Section was always in the lead throughout Air Reserve Command. He had the respect of all. I very much enjoyed working with him and his guys.

Glad to hear that he got a chance to enjoy retirement. Sorry to hear of his passing too soon.
