If you could take a star from heavens above...that would be Engineer Solomon's smile. If you could take softness of the clouds down from the sky... that would be his Heart. If you could take the laughter of a little child... that would be Charlie. Those are just a few of the memories that I have of Charlie, working at the fire department with him...always there to lend a hand. Always there to help. Rest in peace special Man,may God keep you close in his hands.
