Janet,
We extend our sympathies to you and yours at this time. Charlie was a good man who was a great provider to the family. I remember our visits to Kalamazoo when I was younger. Charlie was a man of principle and conviction. He worked hard to provide.
I'll never forget the timre that his Father died and we stayed behind to watch your Kids. My Father took us boys to a Detroit Tiger game duing 1967 or 1968. That was a insight into the real world during a tough time in the USA.
Anyways, God bless you.
