Charles Glen was one of ten children born to Daniel Phillip and Lola Bell 'Turner' Mealer. He lived the life that we all just talk about today. The days when you grew your own food to eat and then traded and sold some of it to get the other things you needed. He came from a family of hard working and kind hearted people. The door was always open to anyone. When Glen joined the sevice, for whatever reason, he was called Charley. This is what is on all of his military documents and headstone at Henri-Chapelle Cemetery. He also has a memorial gravesite at Burnt Mountain Church in Pickens County, Georgia where his parents and other family members are buried. You are remembered and loved. Thank you for serving our country.
