Dear family, words cannot fill the emptiness you are feeling at this time. Knowing that Charlie is in a better place with no pain and watching over those of us that are left behind gives us some easiness for our pain. He was surely a keeper, a great husband, father, grandfather, step-father, and someone I am proud to say family. Watch over us sweet Charlie till we are all together again.

can't believe that we lost our husbands a month apart. I'm having a terrible time adjusting to being alone. Hope you have more strength than me. You are in my prayers.
