We are so very sorry to learn of Charlie's passing.

we will always remember him fondly from the years
that our boys were in school together.

Karen, Brian, Jeremy, and all the family: I was very sad to hear on Monday that Charlie had passed away. It has been a while since I was able to really visit with Charlie because he was hospitalized and so I mainly would just visit with Karen for a few minutes, but on my last visit he definitely recognized me and I could see that he said "Hey Jack" and smiled. I always enjoyed talking with Charlie and was amazed at his Trivial Pursuit skills. He was a super smart guy. I know Charlie was a very active and involved Dad and Grand Dad and it was obvious to me how much he loved his family. The loss of Charlie will be felt for a long time by so many, but we can all find peace in knowing that now he is at home with the Lord.
Love you all very much!
Jack
