I remember Charlie as a little boy always having that big Kool-Aid smile. He was a very handsome, respectful young man. As a mother I can only imagine what his Mom is going through. The sad part about life is we all have a number and as hurtful and painful as it is it was time for him to leave us. Rest In Peace Charlie.
