Charlie and I were friends from the first second that Eddie Love introduced us at UCA. Played a lot of softball with him, shared lots of laughs, a true and loyal friend. Will miss him.

Gonna sure miss Charlie on FB and his comments that would just make me laugh and laugh. Valla, Diana and family, we are very sorry for your loss and prayers for your family. Years and years ago Charlie and Rex played on a softball team and we were in Harrison for a tournament., After the game, we all got dressed and was heading to eat. We were walking by a swimming pool and guess who pushed me in, yep, Charlie.... you can never be mad at him because he was just Charlie. love and prayers!

I'm so sorry for your loss. Charlie grew up across the field from me in Vilonia. We quail and rabbit hunted together during our high school years. He would call me and say let's go hunting. We would meet in the woods behind our house and hunt rabbits. He always wanted Mama Gray to fix us her bbq rabbit. Charlie was so fun to be around. Boy could he knock the cover off a baseball. He will be greatly missed here. We will get to reunite with him when we see Charlie and Jesus in heaven. May God bless his family in their time of loss.

My heart sank to my toes and I got so nauseated when Jack Sims let me know this morning. He & I have been friends since High School and I loved his like a brother. We bantered back & forth on FB. My husband said he was a good Cavalryman and everyone in Troop E loved him. I know why……..if you knew Charlie, you had to love him. He will be greatly missed.
Family I'm so very sorry. Sissy, my heart hurts for you. Love you all and prayers for each of you.
