Our Heavenly Father has given us a life span of 70-80 years if we are especially strong. May you celebrate a life well lived and loved by many. May the words of Psalm 90:10,14 bring comfort to the family.

Mr. Chaharyn lived at Pocassett Bay at the same time as my mom. I would spend lots of time talking to him about his Air Force service- and I always saluted him every time I saw him. He was a joy, a kind and sincere man and a Veteran who served us proudly. He will be greatly missed. My deepest sympathy at this time of great loss.
