Charlie was a golfing buddy at Wendell CC. I have a lot of wonderful memories that will last my lifetime. He will be missed by all.
Charlie was a great guy and friend. He will be missed. Our thoughts and prayers are with Barbara and their family.
Harold and I are so sorry to hear of Charlie’s passing. He fought the good fight and never let his struggle get him down. I had a great time bantering with him over politics and I know how much Harold loved playing golf with him. RIP Charlie, your job is done.
We will miss that smile. True gentleman. RIP friend!
Charlie was always upbeat when we worked together at Edgewater Elementary. What a great guy and quite an active man. Lots of laughs. We have to remember that Charlie didn’t pass on, he passed over to a better place. It is up to all who knew Charlie to pass him on to others through their hearts and minds. My Deepest Sympathy to Barbara and family. Ken Dunn
