My deepest sympathy goes out to all of you. Your dad was a great person. Charlie always loved and looked forward to going to the VFW with him and playing cards. He always had a smile on his face whenever we saw him. Know that he is in a better place. If there is anything that I can do please let me know.

I now live in Vinton,VA, I shall never forget your Dad and the fond memories I have of his good humor. Please be at 'PEACE'; he is in a better
place. God BLESS you all.. Larry Warstler

"Hey Sweety", and so many terms of endearment your Dad would say, brings a smile to my face. He was the real "Sweety". We will miss him greatly. He was a great guy and lots of fun to be with.

We love you all!
