So sorry for your loss. Charles was loved and will be missed by all. I just find out a few days ago, when Peggy Webb called me.
A Better Place
He's in a better place right now
Than hes ever been before;
All pain is gone; hes now at rest;
Nothing troubles him anymore.
Its we who feel the burden of
Our sadness and our grief;.
We have to cry, to mourn our loss,
Before we get relief.
We know well reconnect with him
At the end of each lifes road;
Well see his cherished face again
When we release our earthly load.

I just wanted to say that I am so happy to have had Charlie be a part of my life. I am even happier that my children got to experience life with him in it. They truly love him and June SO VERY much! I remember when Marsha went into labor, what did I do? I ran the car in the ditch not paying attention to what was going on...Charlie saved the day with his tractor. All you'd have to do is call, and he would be right there to help out. Just knowing he was across the way made me feel safe, even as a grown woman. If daddy didn't catch on to it, Charlie would. I love you all so very much and my heart is saddened today; today will be hard for everyone. But, thank heaven you know right where he is. He is singing in God's Choir now. (Love and prayers.)

My heart goes out to you Aunt June and Debbie. Times like this I hate being so far away, just want to be able to hug each of you. I'll always have a special place in my heart for Uncle Charles. Am glad dad and I got to spend time with you all when we came out a couple years ago. Words cannot express what I'm feeling, just wish I was there to help you through this. My prayers and thoughts will be you all during not only the next couple days, but coping with everyday life experiences afterward this weekend.
Lots of love, Jeanne Dawn & family
