So sorry to learn of uncle Charlie´s passing. We have lots of memories together when our families gathered at granny´s or aunt Vera´s every weekend to share a meal and let all the kids hang out and play together.I looked forward to sometimes spending the weekend at his home with aunt Edna, Brian and Angie where he taught me how to shoot my first rifle and taught me how to work on cars and do maintenance when I was only 11 or 12 years old.He was a master and perfectionist at rebuilding carburetors, brakes or any kind kind of automotive repairs. Often friends and neighbors would stop by just to get his help or advice.Prayers for Angie and Brian as I know he will be greatly missed

I knew Charles for many years. He helped me more than once with my clunker car and taught me how to do the maintenance myself so I could save money. His kindness will be missed.
