I worked with Charlie at Camp Holy Cross on Lake Champlain in the 1950s. There are certain people in life who we are fortunate to have known and Charlie leads that list of mine. I was fortunate to have kept in touch with him over the years .
Thank you Father Charlie Davignon. Bill Palmer

Father Davignon married my husband and I in So. Burlington in 1992. He was wonderful, thoughtful, and as my husband was one of nine children, was very proud to come from such a large family himself. Father, enjoy your next journey, you have worked hard and save many souls.

"Wherever a beautiful soul has been, there is a trail of beautiful memories."
We always heard Fr Charles' uncle Edward Pudvah tell us the story of bringing his nephew on the lumber truck to Connecticut for school. Handed him a little money and lots of advice on leaving the farm. Sending our thoughts & prayers and thinking of all the beautiful memories.
In sympathy, Laurice & Dorothy Pudvah and family

I first met Fr. Charlie when I was a Maryknoll Seminarian in the 70's. He was such a good priest and friend. I last visited him in his home in Vermont 2 years ago and I'm so grateful to have spent time with him. Rest in peace Fr. Charlie.

I met Fr. Charlie when he was a guest at our comparative religions class at So. Burlington High School years ago, and liked him immediately. I could see he was a kind man and had a lively sense of humor, and genuinely liked people. I saw him on and off over the years, and we had a couple mutual friends, so I would hear news of him regularly. Praying for Fr. Charlie's loved ones and friends as you all adjust to life without him.

Prayerful condolences to the Davignon family on the sad news of Father Charlie's 'going home to God'. The highlight of our over 50 year friendship was the trip we made together around the world in September 1975 via Alaska, Hong Kong, in Calcutta with Saint Mother Teresa, then on to Delhi, Moscow, Warsaw, celebrating Mass at the tomb of Saint Hyacinthe in Krakow, and then visiting my dear Aunt Elisabeth Curtin in Salzburg, Austria. In later years, I much enjoyed visiting Charlie at the family farm in Brownington, and in many Vermont parishes where he always had the 'Maryknoll North' banner on the wall. It was only a few weeks ago that Charlie and I reflected in a telephone call on how the Lord had blessed our lives! May his noble soul rest in peace!

Fr. Charlie was a dear friend for many, many years. We worked together in Puno, Peru and again at Maryknoll, NY. I spent many a pleasant day visiting Charlie in Vermont. He kept me laughing even in the darkest of times.
I will offer a mass for him and will keep Charlie and all of the Davignon family in my prayers.
Fr. Frank McGourn, M.M.
