The wonderful memories we have of you will always be in our hearts.  You were such a classy gentleman, from your words of wisdom to opening up the car doors and opening your heart to everyone.  

Your enjoyment of the beautiful warm sunshine to our times watching the amazing glow of the sunset across the gulf was unforgettable.  We have been the luckiest friends to be included in your life filled with laughter and joy which was an incredible gift only you could have shared.  

The sweet gifts of sugar and jelly are on their way because only YOU - made life so sweet.  

Sweet dreams Charlie, we love and miss you

To my Sweetheart Brother, I was the luckiest girl in Delray with 5 fabulous older brothers.
You were such a blessing in my life , all the travels we did together, all the family dinners and get togethers were such fun.
I will miss you so much and you will always have a special place in my heart .
Love you Charlie.

Uncle Chuck, I will miss you so much!! I have so many great memories of birthday parties when I was little and all the holidays we spent together as family.
 I remember you were always smiling, and in all the pictures we have of you (that's a lot remember my Dad loved pictures) you have that genuine sweet smile.
 You were always so generous to everyone, and I never heard you say an unkind word.
 Thank you for being such a wonderful Uncle to me and a great brother to my sweet Mom.
 You will never be forgotten, and we are blessed with many memories. 
Love forever, Lynnie.

We will miss you Charlie! You always asked about Dean's friends, new and old…concerned about everyone's well-being. Never afraid to share your feelings to Dean…I loved hearing you tell Dean how proud of him you were, what a great relationship Dean and I had and how blessed we are to have such healthy, bright, pretty little girls. I loved how you asked our girls questions and watched them color and do art work next to you.  I admire most about you is the ability to say what is on your mind, encouraging Dean and showing a positive attitude. I know at times Dean seemed embarrassed but I know it helped him open his eyes to be thankful for what he has and who he has become. Everyone that came into your life, you treated them so kindly…
I will miss your need for bologna sandwiches and you and Sharon getting Taco Bell on your way here.  I know you are at peace now but please know you are missed. I will take great care of Sharon and the family. Love you Lad :)

Im not sure how to start this, but I know how I feel...Charlie you will be dearly missed from all the people whom's life you have touched.  You were a great friend to all of us "Deans friends" and always made me feel accepted no matter what we had done.  You had that smile and persona that made anyone feel warm and at ease when they saw you. You fought life tooth and nail and now you are in the gates of heaven enjoying the golf greens that you so loved. You are with the lord now and are finally at peace! May GOD be with you, my friend, and look over all your loved ones.

Charlie, you will be missed.....I know you were a great father figure and role model to my best friend Dean and I know he is a better man from you.   I remember talking with you at Dean's wedding and knew right off the bat you are great man.  Rest in peace Charlie.

On Nov. 4th, 2013 I lost my stepfather, the man who helped raise me since I was 14 years old. A great man who always treated me as if I was his son and always treated my mom better than I could've ever asked or wished for. He was a man who helped teach me about life, about business, and overall taught me how to be a good person especially through my teenage years which are always very impressionable times for young men... He always shared his love of the game of golf with me, talked to me about the game and always tried to teach me the correct way to play, hence the reason I don't think he would ever take credit for how bad I actually play! He used to love teasing me about my "grip it and rip it" approach while he was just short and straight down the fairway.  He was one of the most kind and generous people I have ever known.  He never hesitated to tell me how proud he was of me… which now looking back makes me feel honored to make a person like Charlie proud.  I will now miss the times of calling my moms house and having him answer the phone and always say his signature line… "how are you doing lad".  My only regret now is not spending more time coming to see you and visit in the past couple years.  This world was a much better place with you in it.  But I am sure up there in Heaven they know they have one of the Good Guys now.  Thank you for all the wonderful memories... You will be greatly missed every single day.   May you RIP Charlie… and I look forward to the day we meet again.  I love you.

Charlie we will always remember the many adventures with you and Sharon, like Thanksgiving Days with the Indians at the Casino & dinners at your home with family, boyhood memories like selling papers at Fort St/Livernois & tool shop stories. Remembering you as  an honored member of the 'Greatest Generation" and your service during World War II, searching for Japanese subs from your PBY Flying Boat. A true gentleman, you always opened the door for Sue and showed kindness. As your mobility faded, your own determination & Sharon's loving care gives us strength for our own recovery needs from Sue's stroke. To borrow a good bye standard from Bob Hope, Thanks for the memories.

Charlie you were a one of a kind true gentleman. You have left a lasting impression on many lives. We will miss playing cards with you (SORRY CHARLIE), Dave will miss calling and teasing you about Tiger. We love you and will miss you always. God Bless you,we will listen for your bell at Christmas.

Charlie had a gentle heart and an authentic smile. Always glad to share kind words of encouragement or an opinion he might think you could benefit from.  The world was a better place with him in it.  Throughout life, certain people leave an imprint on your soul.  They teach you about things, even if you don't realize it at the time.  He had an old school work ethic and was a gentlemen who knew how to treat my mom.  We will miss you and we love you.

Charlie was not just my grandpa, he was truly among the world's most kind and generous men. I would not be where I am today without everything he did for me from the time I was born.

As a child I used to get very upset when he would go home in the evening after spending time playing with me. Mom always assured me that he would be back the next day, but even then, part of me knew there would come a time when he would no longer be with me. At least we're all blessed that this inevitable time took so long in coming, and he lived such a full life surrounded by wonderful people.

I'll miss you, Papa. Maybe one day we'll meet again.

I love you Grandpa !! I'll miss you !!

I will always remember when you found out I was Mr. Decker's daughter.  Then
you told me that he taught you so much about drafting.  I also remember the
time we were Up North and it was raining very hard and you walked all the way
back to get the car for Sharon & I.  What a wonderful man!!!

Charlie you and Ed, are going to have fun playing golf just like you did in Florida, the four of us had so many good times together, you will be missed.  God bless you and keep you.
                                           Blessings,
                                            Shirley Parker (McKinney, Texas)
