Janet.....My thoughts and prayers go out to you and Brian. Charlie was such an inspiring individual who was liked by so many of his customers at Mazda. He endured to the end with bravery and strength from the Lord. He mentioned how much you had sustained him the last couple of years, standing by his side for him to lean on for support. He loved you dearly and I know that God will enable you with courage to be strong.

Underneath you are his ever lasting arms.
