Knew Charles a long time, good guy, sorry to hear about his passing, God bless all the family.
I work at Pinehurst Area Realty and dealt with Charles on a regular basis. We ALL loved him! He was a good repairman and an even better person – always quick with a story and a smile – would sit and chat with us about life in general when he had the chance. I am truly heartbroken and send love and prayers to all his family. God bless and keep him…
Susan & family, we are so sorry for your loss. I knew Charles since high school & he was a just a great all around gentleman. Our thoughts and prayers will be with you & the family.

Charles came to my house the night my husband died and stayed with me while the EMTs tried to save him. He was a great neighbor even though he only lived on the lake part time. My prayers are with you Susan. I truly know what you are going through.
