Tracie, we couldn’t get there in time but did get to see it online. We appreciated the chance to say good bye .to Charley We love you and pray a special closeness of the Holy Spirit be on and linger with you
Dear Ouren family,
Charlie meant more to me than I can put into words!
There will always be a ton of memories that I will keep
as time goes by. Charlie and I hit it off from the very beginning
We shared that’s same interests in Husker sports and the Kansas
City Chiefs for sure. His humble spirit and kind heart is a thing
we enjoyed being around. Allied Universal and OPPD employees
always gave compliments about Charlie. Everyone always enjoyed
being around him, I miss him, but I know he is at peace now.
It was nice to meet your family, and his other friends. Take care,
Tracy, I just heard or I would have been there. Charlie was so awesome and loved by many. He could always make you laugh and his smile was contagious. I will miss him dearly!!
Dear Ouren Family,
I met Charlie a year ago. I trained him at one of the OPPD facilities in which we worked. He talked of his family and most certainly his grandchildren. I will miss Charlie’s smile most, Charlie was always so kind and had a wonderful sense of humor. We worked together for a short time but he was wonderful to work with and we became fast friends.
So sorry for your loss, You have my deepest condolences.
