Whole In Heaven.

Thanks to every single one of you who ever uttered a prayer for Charley and our family. He passed at home this morning after having said his “good bye’s” and “I love you’s.”

Heaven’s got a new kid in town.  Charley said his first words would be, “Howdy!”  But keep your ears open… he did play the trumpet.

    God bless all of you. No more suffering for Charley now. He fought a long, very tough battle and your mom fought right beside him. My heart is very heavy. Thinking of all of you today.

    My tears are for the family. But grateful that Charley is no longer ill. MM is such a terrible cancer. What a godly heritage Charley established in his home. That is a blessing. And he was such a diligent provider to continue working, when I know he could not have felt up to working.

    Give him a couple of days and he will be helping Gabriel blow that horn!

    Your parents have always been a great inspiration and a wonderful “love story”! I know he’ll be missed, but everyone knows he’s happily greeting all of his friends in heaven!
    Sending love and prayers to all of your family!

    I only met Charley a couple of times when he and your mom were out here on vacations, but i consider myself blessed for having had to opportunity to hang out with him and Donna. he had such a wonderful sense of humor and was so easy going, it was so much fun to be in his company.

    In Vancouver, BC, people handed out free newspapers on the street and Charley always got one. forever after, any time i’ve travelled, i’ve thought of Charley and the newspapers and always tried to get him one. (Donna, remember the paper i sent from India?)

    at the zoo, he loved the sea otters and declared that he could sit and watch them all day–i’m hoping that in between giving Gabriel trumpet tips and hanging out with Jesus, Charley will have a big pool of lively sea otters to watch.

    Charley has left a wonderful legacy in his children and grandson (such a blessing that he got to have time with Bennett in this life) and while we will all miss him, we can only rejoice that he is Home with Jesus and eternally free from all pain.

    I hope that I make him proud down here. I made a promise to him to take care of this family and that is what I intend to do.
