Charlie Phillips

Charlie was a good friend to me when we were in school, later in life, when we would run into each other he would always ask how I was dosing and the family etc. , never focused on himself or what he was doing or what was going on in his life, unless I would ask about him and his family, we would part and I always felt better about my self when he left, that speaks to the the kind of person he was. As we all do, at least me, I would take for granite that we would run into each other again. I will really miss him and our talks. God bless you, rest in peace.
