You brought such richness to those of us who were brought up on the South Shore. Hang Ten Charlie! You will be missed.

To the entire family,
Charlie will be remembered and missed by so many. It was a privilege knowing him, and a shock to find out that he went home to be with God. He was such an important part of Long Island's history, and was a local legend. The ocean's waves will forever ebb and tide, just as grief does. His spirit will live on forever. Please know that Alithea and I send our condolences to everyone. So sorry for your family's loss and for everyone else who knew Charlie. He'll be forever surfin' the most perfect waves up in Heaven. God Bless.

What a shock ! It was just you and me Charlie.
No one even knew what a surfboard was. How time fly's.
They will rise up with wings like eagles they will run and not faint, GOD's speed my friend,
GOD is real. The surf will be good and you will be remembered for sure. My heart is heavy rest in peace.

Sad to hear of Charlie's passing, still riding my 7' 6" Bunger single fin in the warm waters of Georgia.
