I was an avid runner in my younger years and that is how I met Charlie. We would reminisce about running at St Paul United Methodist Church. I remember him for his smile, encouragement and positive attitude. He would always greet me and my wife, Diane when our paths crossed. It was always a joy. I felt a pang in my heart when I saw his picture in the St.Pete Times today. He will be greatly missed by the community which he served so graciously. My condolences to his family. Know that you were blessed to be a part of his life and he a part of your lives.

I have good memories with my uncle and aunt and cousins I love go Disney world and find more shells ... I chat with Charles because he s good alphabet spell sign language and funny joke 🤟 🤗 all of your family
Charlie and Ellen were our next door neighbors for 17 years and our friendship flourished although Charlie & I butted heads many times all in fun. One particular occasion I recall vividly was when we were training our Shih Tzu puppy, to stay in her own yard. Every time I scolded her, he would be calling her and encouraging her to come into their yard. Once, when she did, she promptly pottied there. He didn’t think it was so funny then. I told him he called her so he had to clean it up. Sweet revenge. Charlie was a good person though and would help anybody he could. I will never think of Charlie without a smile on my face but with a deep sense of loss within my heart. RIP Charlie and reap the rewards of a life well lived. 🙏
