To all who loved Charlie:

My brother, Dave, and I, as well as our father (Don) knew and admired Charlie as customers of Charlie and Joe. There was an easiness about Charlie that made us comfortable and relaxed in his presence, and I'm sure that it was the same among family members.

From the Kelley families in Rockford, our sincere condolences on your loss.

God bless and comfort you in your time of need.

Connie and Family,

Was sorry to hear about Charley's passing. Even though Harry and I left Rockford over 40 years ago we still stay in touch with a few friends.
Our sincere sympathy goes out to you at this sad time with loving thoughts.

Your cousin, Jean (Calacurcio) & Harry Sundine
