I am so sad to learn today of the death of my wonderful friend Charles. I will miss him so much, a void is in my life. He was a great person that I had so much respect for. We worked so well together for many years on my websites. We had our moments of struggle, but always ended up ok.
So very sad today.

I am very saddened to hear of my childhood friends passing. We grew up together in Harahan, attended St Rita School together, and although I have not seen Charles in many years, I will miss him. I would like to send my thoughts and prayers to all his family and friends.

Charles was always a great guy growing up. My brother and I had many fun times in our youth living down the street!
