Cindy and Ty, so sorry to hear about Charles. He was a great man and lived his life as God ordained. I especially liked his sense of humor and concern for others. I enjoyed about a 30 minute visit with him at the church the day of the celebration of your minister's school retirement . I pray that our Lord will hold ya'll close and comfort you and give you strength.
