• I met this man father a friend way back in the early 90's when I was a little kid, meeting Charlie wasn't a mistake it was sort of faith, a girl who was sitting by the cottage playing in a made sandbox became my friend and charlie the dad came and seen us playing, the first time I seen him just a little scary especially his choice of dogs from big ones that could eat me to little things that ahhh yeah well it was a start from being young til I drive a car to when I chop wood. I'm sorry to all in the family for your loss and my absence, I seen this and broke my heart again. May everyone know we were like family. RIP Charlie, I'll see ya when i see ya and ya peace to the Beach family I guess - Posted by: Raymond Caribou(kalkman) (daughters bestie and friend) on: Mar 28, 2025

• I am very sorry to hear of Charlie's passing. Charlie and I worked together in Pauingassi between 1984 and 1986. By many, if not most, in the community I was called Moe Bandy because it was thought by some in the community that I resembled that singer in appearance. Charlie was a teacher and later became the school principal. Other than the days during school, Charlie and I fished together, played weekly volleyball with school staff and community members, and we socialized outside of school hours. Charlie was proud of Pauingassi School. He organized school barbecues. Charlie was instrumental in helping to organize a charity to fly in before Christmas to donate skates and other items for the school children. I recall that he spent hours upon hours meticulously painting a large eagle in the gym, hence the Pauingassi Eagles. I don't know if Pauingassi School sports teams are still called that. Dorothy, I extend my deepest condolences to you and your family at this sad time. H. Hoffmann - Posted by: H. Hoffmann (Former colleague) on: Feb 22, 2025
