Charlie and I started our friendship right when he hopped on the board. He would come see me at the shop when I lived in Dallas when he had business. He kept in contact with me after my move to Connecticut, many phone calls, recipe sharing, before black talk ( I just listened because no one knew more).
I think about him every day, even well before this as he struck me as a true friend.
I can't call Charlie anymore. What I have learned from him automotive and otherwise, is part of me and it will feel like he is still with me.
Our time on T6P with the "undesirables" is well documented. If I needed a laugh I just checked in to read about wine, sheep, food, and what nonsense was going on here at the mothership.
He always had the boards best interests in mind.
Another Kinky Six.....He bled Buick, like most of us. He's now part of the metal that made this place and T6P what it is. I am thankful for knowing him.
RIP my brother.
