Charlie loved to ride his motorcycle up till he couldn’t anymore ... he liked to watch wrestling and Survivor each week....he was diligent in playing the same numbers for his weekly lottery tickets and was convinced that one of these days he would cash in... he liked sitting with the neighbours around the fire strumming his guitar and singing a few bars of “I’m Alright, nobody worry about me” to name just a few in his repertoire of songs ... he always told people his middle name was George and that “they named 2 kings” after him ... Charlie always said “Come get your Free Smiles” to everyone...
