Hi Toby,
Judy just sent the Murphy family an e-mail about Charlie. I didn't know that he was having health issues. My heart is breaking for you and your family. Pops was such a special man to me.....I'll never forget him. I'm sorry that I haven't been to FL in over 5 years to see you both, I would have loved to have spent some time with him. I take comfort in knowing that now he is no longer in pain and that I will see him again and I know that you do too. I loved him so much and I will always cherish the wonderful memories that I have of him....of the both of you.
May God wrap His loving arms around you and your family and fill you all with His strength, comfort and peace. Love, Christy

Nothing is harder than the loss of someone we love, perhaps their greater purpose is to love us from above. Loving memories comfort the pain in our hearts. Love without end has no end. Prayers & Blessings.
