Carolyn our prayers are with you and your family
Aunt Carolyn, I'll always remember the last time I was with Uncle Charles. The family had stopped off in Osceola to visit on our way to the White River and Branson. That would've been '86 or '87. We did together what we both enjoyed doing. . . Played a round of golf. We came up on a green with water in front. Uncle Charles told me I didn't have enough club but I was out to prove big old me could do it. . . He was right. Wish we lived closer so I could give you a hug. . .Love, Stephen.
Carolyn, I'm so sorry to hear this. He was always such a sweet man. Thoughts and prayers with you in the coming days.
