His wife, Annmarie John, lovingly shared these words about the man she cherished:

"Charlie made me more independent. He didn't want me to depend on anyone, but to be my own person.  He kept pushing me to bring my best, thinking on the positive side of things and not the negative. He helped me so much, and I hope that I did the same for him."
