I want to send my condolence to Charlies family. I hired him as a teacher to work in our resource classrooms at LHS. He was a natural teacher and supported students with emotional needs. Later I would run into Charlie in the community and was always greeted with his smile and high energy. He will be greatly missed.

I had a very special relationship with Charlie that I will treasure forever. Charlie welcomed me into his heart because he got it! His Dad and I share very special memories of him, I will always be grateful for the years Charlie came to live with us as a family. We miss our daily talks, calls and texts. We miss our son beyond words. Take care of Brophy Bear, Charlie.
Love, Dad & Deb

Sorry for your loss I only knew him for a few years, starting in 6th grade at Piper Rd School, but I can agree, his smile and sense of humor were second to none. When he’s enter a room, people surely would be waiting to see what he’d say! Almost “the life of the party” in a classroom setting! Huge on his sports! I’ll be attending to sign the book and pay my respects on Monday.
