Was so sorry to hear of Charlie’s passing! We played football together at Newberry College. Ironically, we played the same position, he was the right defensive tackle and I was the left defensive tackle. We were really good on defense. Charlie was a great player, leader and mentor to me. He called me a couple of times right before he went into the Newberry HOF! He seemed surprised that he was going in, but all those that played with him know it was long overdue and well deserved. It was the first time we had talked since he graduated. My prayers are for the family!

I truly enjoyed shooting with Charlie. We shot sporting clays and “Scratch “ Charlie showed me the “hold points” I use today when shooting. He was a good friend and I will miss him greatly.

I could not have asked for a better father in law during my marriage to Katherine. Taught me a lot about shooting and helped me a lot when I was between jobs. Taught me a lot about construction. He was a great man and an awesome grandfather to mine and Katherine’s children. I am going to miss him.
