I only recently heard of Charlie's death. I went to high school with him and although I'm not seen him in many years, I still remember him as so warm, funny, and lovable.

Charlie was an old friend for whom his resume gives only a hint of his depth and character. He was funny, warm, thoughtful, devoted, interested, aware, honest, a battler, who in the end had the courage to accept his fate, with incredible grace. He left us too soon, but we won't soon forget him.

Greetings on this day of mixed emotion. We look toward our day to stand ready to enter Heaven, yet those of us left behind, are saddened at our loss. Know that the smile Charlie offered will be always remembered here on earth. God already knows that wonderful smile. You are going to enter a journey toward a 'new normal' that will take some of the most interesting twists and turns. You will see God in places never imagined and the flowers will be sweeter than ever before. We offer you peace on this journey.

Lyn and Anne,

Our heart-filled thoughts go out to you at this very difficult time. Upon receiving the word from Tim, I could only think to ask God for his presence in your lives in a way you've never known before, as Charlie enters a heavenly world that we all live to experience. May the many memories and happy moments bring you some solice at this time when your heart seems so empty. Although your Mother-daughter relationship has always been very special, I feel certain the role you play in each others lives will take on new meaning. All our love and God's blessings. Martha and the boys.
