I was able to meet Charles thru my dad Ted McDowell. We visited Charles and Beverly every year in April. Stories were told and much food was consumed on every visit. It was a great time and looked forward to every year. I am proud to call him family. My prayers go out to the many family member left behind to grieve his loss. God bless you all and may his healing hands wrap around you in your time of loss. Much love to all, LuAnn Traves.
