Charles Sethman was an upper classman when I went to Fort Cherry Jr. Sr. HS in 1966. He played football, and I remember that was a kicker. In the 7th and 8th grades, we always looked up to the varsity guys, hoping we would one day be one ourselves. His family should be proud of him, as he served his country in the military. My condolences.
