CHARLES EDWIN GILLILAND

To Elizabeth and Emily,

Please accept my sincere condolences on your loss. I have fond memories of our families spending great times together when we were all much younger. The trip to Hilton Head stands out to me as a very fond childhood memory. May Charles rest in peace and what joy he must be experiencing to be with his parents, his son, and his Heavenly Father. God bless you both. Sincerely, Ted Sturges

Dearest Ellen,Greg and Family, Charles is finally at rest, no more suffering. He will truly be missed in our community! His cordial and sincere personality was loved by all who knew him. I will never forget all the parades and the celebrations we had at the Gilliland -Howe Funeral Home parking lot. Charles always had the most beautiful hanging baskets of flowers, and the property festively decorated! Remember the flower garden in the shape of a ' Big Heart' he had in memory of your Mother, Beaulah Mae. It was like a reunion every year with family and friends. My Dad always enjoyed seeing him at Storie"s Restuarant sharing a cup of coffee or treating one or the other to lunch. Of course Rock and his Dad enjoyed seeing him on the golf course! They will never forget his whole 'n one! Congrats Charlie! As a dear friend and neighbor to you, Ellen, think of all the Beautiful Memories! We were Blessed to grow up in a very special neighborhood. Cherish is the Word! Sincerely, Rock and Cheryl

Please, know that my thoughts and prayers are with you now and in the days to come. Sincere sympathy.

Our condolences on the passing of your loved one. Melvin Robbins and Joretta Robbins Headlee

RIP Charles. I met Charles years ago and loved the stories about his family and the Hamilton's. We will miss his friendly smile and pleasant demeanor. Sending our prayers to his family.

I am so sorry to hear of the loss of your father, Emily and Elizabeth. He was a good and kind man who was thoughtful as well as vibrant. When my father died, he comforted me at the funeral. I will never forget that considerate gesture. I hope you and your family find comfort in the wonderful memories you all share. Love to all who knew and will miss this wonderful man.

Ellen, Debby, Elizabeth, and Emily: Charles was a wonderful, generous neighbor and friend to the Nienaber Family. Mom beamed when he brought her gifts from his travels! Heydon and I send our sympathy to you and your families.
