I was very sad to hear that my Uncle Charlie died. I didn’t know it until I saw it online by browsing through the obituaries in the Lancaster Newspaper. I do not live in the Lancaster area anymore and my family didn’t inform me. Uncle Charlie was a good guy. I remember him all the way back to when I was very small and I called his son "Christy". He was always very kind to me and showed me alot of love. Even as I grew up, he always cared about me and welcomed me every time he saw me. My heart goes out to his son, daughter in law and grandson. I know you all were very close. Take care and remember your dad and granddad with a smile. He would of wanted it that way. 
Love, Diana Commero Rankin
