I am truly sorry to hear of the passing of my classmate and close friend. We talked and laughed with each other whenever our paths brought us together. For GOD so loved the world he gave his only begotten son that whosoever believe in him would not perish but have ever lasting life. We will meet him again.
To the Townes family am sorry for loss. Charles and I use to work together. He was a cool dude. Man you have gain your wings.
Joe and I send our deepest condolences to the family. We only knew Charles from seeing him around town and through his work with the pubic schools, but we already miss his familiar presence. We were so moved to learn that he served our country as a young Marine. Our thoughts and prayers are with the entire family. . Charles will be truly missed. "Semper Fidelis" {the Marine motto meaning "Always Faithful}.
