Miss Margaret,Charlie,Melanie,Pam,
I had the pleasure of working with Mr Charlie but he immediately became one of my best friends. Mr Charlie was the one that I talked to about anything going on in my life. He was so honest and caring. Charlie, he was so proud of you and Babbie. I remember some of the stories that he told me about you growing up.. Melanie, I had the pleasure of meeting you once. He talked often of your family. Pam, he told stories of going on roadtrips to visit you and your family before you moved to NC. Miss Margaret, he loved you so much. The two of you made such a great team. I have so many fond memories of working with Mr Charlie. I can still hear him now sitting on the stool singing to us at the drug store. My life was blessed by knowing this wonderful man and he will always be in my heart.
