Charles (Charlie) David Blair, 48 passed away Monday, November 26, 2012 at Baylor Carrollton Hospital surrounded by his loved ones.

Charlie graduated from Plano East Senior High School in 1983. He was an excellent baseball player and loved all sports, especially the Texas Longhorns and Dallas Cowboys. He was a man’s man that loved the outdoors and wouldn’t come inside unless it was forced upon him.

Charlie was baptized at Meadows Baptist church and was a man of strong faith.

Charlie was a straight forward guy with a big heart and loved by everyone that knew him. He might have had a stubborn side but he made up for it with his extreme love for life and everyone close to him. He would do anything for anyone. He would give you the shirt off his back and his last dollar, even if he had to borrow it. He would say he never met a stranger and if he did they wouldn’t be strangers for long. He easily made friends with everyone and made people laugh and smile. Charlie was an adult kid that refused to grow up and we all enjoyed his fun playful side. He always had great stories and about half of them were true. He had so many great friends and they called themselves the “Street Light Gang”. These were friends for life that he cherished and he valued every single memory made with this group. He was a caring husband, father and friend that would never turn his back on anyone. He was loved by many and will be greatly missed.

Memorial service is scheduled Thursday, November 29, 2012 at 11:00, Prestonwood Baptist Church in Plano, Texas with Neal Jeffrey officiating.
