To the family of Charles, you have my belated condolences in your loss. Death was never God’s purpose for the human family. He put Adam and Eve in the garden of Eden (paradise), and they were to extend it, have many children, and to fill the earth (Genesis 1:28). They were to live forever as long as they were obedient, if not, they would die (Genesis 2:15-17). Very soon, God will reverse the effects of sin and eliminateq death forever and all of His promises will come true! – Isaiah 25:8
My condolences to the family. I will keep you guys in my prayers. I’ll never forget Charles. He was a really genuine person, with a huge heart. He always smiled, no matter the situation. When you saw him…you saw Charlisa. He really took care of his baby sister. Please God, be with their family as they cope. All love.
To the family of Charles. My heart goes out to you all. He was a very talented and special guy. I can remember when he was around 4 and would say he’d grow up to be a rapper. Charles, it really hurts my heart to know you are gone. Your childhood neighbor and friend
