Sheryl, I am so very sorry to hear of Charles passing away. He certainly went thru so many very difficult years. Thru it all you stayed by his side continually searching for things to help make everything easier for him.

Thank you for sharing his obituary. Charles sounds like he lived a full life. He had many interests, including glass. My son also works with glass (when he has time) and makes all kinds of things. Down the road after everything settles down I'd love to hear about his glass work.

May Charles rest in peace free from pain and illness. In time I hope the happier times you shared can bring you comfort.

(((HUGS)))
