  1. Charlie and I were very close for a long time, he was a wonderful friend really will miss him for the rest of my time here. He was a man of his word’ knew what he wanted and could not be deterred I know this may sound selfish but, I loved him as a brother. We went through a lot together for the past 65 years and stuck together through it all, way too much to put here. Like it or not I will carry this “Brotherly Love” to my grave. I would feel empty if I didn’t keep him in my heart Farewell my Friend, it’s been long ride as it comes to an end God bless
