Virginia and family:
So sorry to hear this news. Charles was a special man, and will always hold a special place in my heart. I want to remind you of a funny story that really defines Charles.... he was at the deer camp and cooking, sitting at the deep fryer. He wanted Alex to help him cook, and as you can imagine, they were having some fun poking at each other. When Charles took some fries out, he told Alex to sample one, and let him know how it was..... Charles was speechless when Alex said "well I think you cooked all the tater outta that one"!
I will always laugh thinking about that.....
You are in my prayers.
