In 55 years I have only know one other man who worked as hard as Charles. I was glad to have know him the last three years of his life. He loved his family and his work but always had time for the people around him. He is an inspiration that is dearly missed.

May God bless you and your family in this time of sorrow.
And may you be comforted by the promises found in the Bible at Revelation 21:4-
“And he will wipe out every tear from their eyes, and death will be no more,
neither mourning nor outcry nor pain be anymore. The former things have passed away.”
