He enjoyed buying cars and trucks, doing some light work to make it shine and sell it. Charlie enjoyed his retirement riding his Harley and traveling with Pat from Maine to Florida and out West. Grandpa Charlie loved being with his grandchildren. He would rock them to sleep when they were babies, push them in the swing and play for many hours on the floor with their toys. He always up for a fierce game of UNO.
