My heartfelt condolences to Charles' family and his friend, Charles. I met Charles years ago through my sister, Teri Redcross-Ali. Charles often joined us for holidays and family gatherings(last was X-mas 2004)...he was a very special part of our family. Charles sat right next to my beautiful Mother this past Christmas. My Mom passed away 5 days later on the 30th and now Charles. It's so hard to believe that two such loving spirits have passed on, but I rest assure that they are in the mighty presence of Jesus. I will miss you forever, Charles...you and Mom keep laughing !!!

Dear Poole Family:
Bro. Poole was an inspiration to me with his continous smile and the way he "tickeled" those keys. May all be blessed with warm memories of him.

To the Poole family,
Charles and I worked together at Hughes Aircraft, Raytheon, and Booz Allen Hamilton. Charles was also, for a while, the musician at my hometown church. I last spoke with him on the phone a few weeks ago and will forever smile when I think back to our conversation (he could always make me laugh to tears). Charles was a kind and dear friend and I will miss him very much.
May the Lord continue to watch over your family.

Charles Poole's Family and Friends,
I would like to extend my sincere condolences to you and to let you know that my prayers are with you. Charles and I met while working in Germany. Charles was a wonderful friend, like a brother to me and had such a wonderful and kind heart. He was a part of my family and attended many of our family socials and gatherings that we had. Charles last fellowshiped with our family on Christmas day (2004) for dinner. Charles will be missed dearly but our memories of him will be everlasting. We know that the Father has bigger and better plans for him.

Charles and I met back in 1985 in Berlin, Germany when I was in the Army. Twenty years (20) have gone by too fast. We became friends and when I got married, he coordinated my wedding and handled all of the musical arrangements. Regardless of the fact that we lost touch with each other, Charles was always a good friend. Good-bye Charles from the Whorley's.

There is no question that Charles will be deeply missed. It goes without saying that he was a kind-hearted and sincere person, who always strived to do his best in everything he did and to treat people how he wanted to be treated. Charles was truly a one and a million.
Prayerfully Submitted

My son and I extend our sympathies to you in your hour of sorrow. Charles was our neighbor when we both lived in the Rosecroft Muse Apartment complex. He was good neighbor and friend. If there was anything he could do for you he would. He was always there to lend a helping hand. Our FATHER has a way of putting the right people in your path. We are glad that our FATHER put Charles in ours. He will be surely missed.
