Charles was a good neighbor from the home place in Stilwell. We shared many memories of the neighborhood each time he returned to Stilwell. He would always talked about his girls and his travels. Girls, We are sorry for your loss.

Charles is my first cousin and I knew him well both in Olathe, Kansas and Santa Ana, California. He visited me and my husband when Richard was stationed at Fort Sill, Oklahoma during the Korean Conflict.

Charles was a unique, interesting, and loving person who adored and was tremendously proud of his bright, wonderful, and successful daughters. I will miss his sense of humor and his love of kitties, which he loved.
