I must apologise for not commenting sooner but I looked on legacy. Charlie is one of my best remembered people from my teenage years. The first that I was allowed to go on a date with that owned a car. I never saw him without a smile on his face and that smile lit up a room. I am thankful that I got to see and visit with him last year. He will be missed by everyone. God was ready for him and he will be waiting for all of us with a warm smile and open arms. My prayers are with my good friend Sandy, the children, grandchildren and great grandchildren.

Charlie was a very family oriented person. He loved to make people laugh. He loved his family and would do anything possible for them. He will be missed by all of my family as well. May God be with his family in this time of sorrow.
