My dad, will forever be a part of my life. I will always pack his love, and courage with me. Dad, is gone from my sight, but never from my mind or heart. Your story', passed on, will be told, and shared . Our family tree, will have many branches followed by your name, love you dad ,now and forever...
Even as Charles became sicker and his memory was failing, he never failed to make guests feel at home. I loved it that we would visit like family and then something would "click" and he would say "I remember you. You are Chris' and Sara's mom!" And the visiting would really begin! I feel we became part of your family when Jason and Chris started first grade --- 30+ years. Patricia and Barb, your dad was more than a friend and we all will miss him.
