Charlie, what can I say, He has been in my life for the past 68 years, I loved his laugh but his teasing was something else , always seemed to pick on me with love.I remember him throwing me off the boat and told to sink or swim, fooled him I had been taking swimming lessons. He always had a smile and a hug , kisses on the cheek sometimes but that was Charlie. You are now at peace and not suffering I will cherish all my times with you out at the homestead and then when you moved to Lac du Bonnet. Love You and Miss You with all my heart. You will not be forgotten. Candy and Mel Holmes - Posted by: Candice Holmes (Mayo) (cousins) on: Mar 17, 2018
