My name is Kristen. My dear friend Charles passed unexpectedly on Friday. He leaves behind his partner of fourteen years, my best friend, Samantha, as well as their beautiful daughter, Gracie. The outpouring of love and support for Samantha, Gracie, and the rest of the family is greatly appreciated. Charles was a dedicated father, a beloved brother, and an amazing friend. We will deeply miss his warm smile. Many of you have asked what you can do to help Samantha and Gracie in this sudden, tragic loss. We want to give him the memorial he deserves and honor his memory as we say our last goodbyes. Unfortunately, there is no insurance to help with Charles' final expenses. We are asking for donations to help lighten the heavy load placed on the family during this difficult time. Please share this page with others who knew him. Thank you so much for your thoughts, prayers and consideration. We have set up a Venmo for Samantha and Gracie @Samantha-Watson-143 (last four = 2466) if you would prefer to not donate through gofundme or you can message privately for their address.
