Charlie was a very good family friend to my mom, Peggy Sue O´Donnell and my grandmother, Margie O´Donnell. He was a wonderful man and in reading his obituary, it seems like he didn´t have any downtime with all of the amazing things in which he took part. I´m sending my sympathy to his family.

Trying to express in words, our sympathy, is so difficult. Therefore, we have relied on this poem by Mary E. Frye which seems to best express our compassion in your time of sorrow.
Do not stand at my grave and weep
I am not there. I do not sleep.
I am a thousand winds that blow.
I am the diamond glints on snow.
I am the sunlight on ripened grain.
I am the gentle autumn rain.
When you awaken in the morning's hush
I am the swift uplifting rush
Of quiet birds in circled flight.
I am the soft stars that shine at night.
Do not stand at my grave and cry;
I am not there. I did not die.
Mary Elizabeth Frye
Our thoughts and prayers are with you my Friend.
