Our family has yet again been struck by disaster after my brother died last December. Now, we lost the love of my life yesterday evening! He came home from work and did his normal routine at home. Then suddenly, he just dropped to the ground. My daughter and I initially did CPR, then EMTs took over. But despite their best efforts, he didn't make it.

Charlie was full of life, a loving husband, and a great father to our two kids. His laugh was so unique and contagious that you'll never forget it. If you knew him, you'd know he was very kind and super industrious.

We don't have a big circle of family or friends, so my family is knocking on anyone's heart for prayers, thoughts, and any means of support in this difficult time.

We appreciate you all.
