Terry and I are so sorry for your loss. We will always remember all our trips to Buffalo airport and Judy's doctor in Buffalo along with Charlie's assistance when you did all the work on our house. I have thought about the two of you and wondered how you were doing. Did find out recently that Charlie was in the nursing home. I'm sure he made many friends there.

Our memories of Charlie include: Getting the "BOOM" after a Dallas Cowboys loss, whistling while he worked outside, watching him show my son how to fix his fence after our swing put a hole in it, finding Dallas Cowboys magnets with our names on them stuck to my mailbox-took us days to figure out who put them there- giving my boys pieces of scrap wood, giving my boys things he no longer wanted- I kept telling Charlie to stop doing that, I didn't have room for the stuff. Charlie thought that was funny
We have to many memories to list. He was a great neighbor and he will be missed. Our sympathies to his family.
