So sorry to hear about Charlie's passing, he was a friend of mine for many years, last time I spoke to him was when he worked at the meat market. My family and I moved to the high desert in 1983 and lost touch with Charlie. My condolences to his family . RIP my old friend Bob Stephen

SO VERY SAD TO LEARN THIS NEWS. CHARLIE WAS REALLY ONE OF THE NICEST GUYS IN OUR CLASS S-64. HE WAS SHY AND QUITE. HOWEVER, HE WAS ONE HECK OF A BASEBALL PLAYER. HE ALSO PLAYED BASKETBALL. REST IN PEACE.
