Charles R. Gist

Our condolences to your family. A family situation prevented us from being with you. I appreciated my very brief working relationship with Dick. He was very helpful to me, and patient, given my total lack of concrete knowledge. It was one of the best jobs I have ever had. At a certain time in life it seems that you begin to lose those folks who you've always known, who have always been there. Dick will be greatly missed. He was a great example of a hard working family man. I know he is in a much better place. Our sympathy, thoughts and prayer go out to your family.

Anut Joanne and Rick, Jeff, and Kelly, I pray you find peace in cherishing all your memories of your Dad. He was one of my favorite Uncles. He always kept me smiling whenever I had an opportunity to be in his presence. My Dad, Uncle Ed and Uncle Dick were something else when they were together (a mess) teasing and picking on each other. I loved them all!!!! And will greatly miss them!!! We must find ways to stay in touch with those that are still with us and continue to build happy memories. Love you all. -Charlene T. Gist-Bowers

He was a living Bible to me and my children. He was a good man who lived by example. He will be greatly missed. Ida, David, Anna, and Ben

Many thoughts and prayers go to the Gist family, Charles was a sweet man who enjoyed making me laugh at his stay at the hospital. May he rest in peace.- Amy Miskimon
