So sorry to hear about Charlie. I will miss him and his beautiful voice in church on Sundays. He was a very nice man and I always enjoyed talking with him. I also knew him from the Candler swim aerobics class on Tuesday and Thursday night. He will be missed.

I remember Charlie and some of our Habitat builds with his yellow ruler suspenders. He was a nice quiet man.

Charley was a wonderful southern gentleman, and I enjoyed our conversations as a new neighbor. I will always treasure the sound of his voice as he sung "Moon River' on New Year's Day. May his family too find comfort in their wonderful memories of him.
