    Charlie was one of a kind. He was a joy to work with and a ray of sunshine to talk with. Our sympathy and love are with you. Getting to spend time with ya'll fishing was so much fun. We will miss him so much.

    Charlie wasn’t only a dispatcher he was a friend. He always made us laugh. I always enjoyed sharing our weekend photos with him of the things we did . We always would share fishing stories too. My heart is broken that we lost our friend. We loved Charlie. He will definitely be missed by us. Memories will last forever.
    Prayers for Mrs Pat and his family.
