Dad, Skip or Charlie was known by many as a devoted husband, father and grandpa. But above all he was one of the nicest men to walk the face of the earth. Charlie saw everyone as a friend and would always have a smile and a wave for you. He will be fondly remembered by everyone that knew him as just an overall nice person. Love, your Proud Family!
