Sorry to hear of Charles' death. My sincere condolences. It seems like yesterday when we all integrated Theodore Roosevelt H. S. I can still see Charles coming into the auditorium. Best regards for continued blessings in your lives.

I am very sad to hear about Charlie's passing. I knew Charlie at Sandy Spring Friends School a long time ago and he was a very good person. I send the family my deepest sympathies.
