    I am so sorry for your loss. I was lucky enough to be taken in for a few weeks what seems like forever ago. Cheryl sent me home with Shawna and I was taken in no questions asked. Charlie took me in and treated me like family, I will always be thankful for having met him and the Armstrongs for helping me though this time in my life. Charlie will always live on in everyone’s memories who where lucky enough to meet him and he will always be in your heart.

    Our sincere sympaties in the loss of Charlie. Our fondest memory of Charlie was a few years back he went on a poker rally with us. We took Mark and Bob and the wagon as Georgie wanted to ride. At one point we stopped to let Charlie get on. He was standing and I kept worrying that he might fall off the back. I said, :Charlie, you better sit down so you don’t fall off” … he told me in a rather calm voice … “don’t worry about me, it is just like those ships I used to go on” … so I tried not to worry anymore and he stood the whole day … It was a beautiful day and a very good day. Take Care & Know you all are in our hearts with kind thoughts and prayers.

    Charlie left a piece of himself in a lot of hearts!! Everyone who knew him has a “Charlie” story…good and bad!! He is already missed by many. I know “Cotton top” is wondering who will run the four wheeler!!
    He left strong “stock” and all remember him and move on…just as he would want! Marilyn Phillips XO

    To all of Charlie’s family……

    “What moves through us is a silence, a quiet sadness, a longing for one more day, one more word, one more touch, we may not understand why you left this earth so soon, or why you left before we were ready to say good-bye, but little by little, we begin to remember not just that you died, but that you lived. And that your life gave us memories too beautiful to forget.”

    Charlie will be missed by all who knew him. He always had a smile and could make everyone laugh in a heartbeat!! Caledonia has lost alot of “the good ole boys”….. but u can be sure they are sharing some stories, a drink or two, or more, lots of laughs, and some good old country music.
    I send my sincere sympathies to you all. ((((HUGS))))
