Michael, Geneva and I want you to know that you and your family continue to be in our thoughts and prayers after the passing of your dad. We loved Charles, and we certainly love his son! Please know that if we can ever do anything to help you, all you have to do is just ask. God bless--He will see you through this time of mixed emotions.

So sorry to hear of the passing of Uncle Charles, he was a precious man who I thought dearly of. When he would come to Laurens he would make his rounds visiting relatives & he would always come back to my home and spend at least one night. He would say, "Now Sis, I just came back by to see you because you are my FAVORITE but I'm going to get me a hotel room." I would laugh & tell him he was always welcome to stay at my home & he would smile & say "Sis, I know that's why I came back here." I always enjoyed his visit listening to the stories of the GOOD O DAYS... My thoughts & prayers are with Mike & his family.
