Charles was a gentle, hardworking, family man who deeply cherished his children and grandchildren, finding joy in being close to them. He dedicated many years to Tri Town Installation in North Providence until chronic illness led to his retirement.

Father's Day was especially dear to him, marked by his traditional meal of Veal Parm at Angelo's on Atwells Ave.
