Peace be with you and your family.

I remember the first time I met Big(D) my daughter was with me. Lakeside Country Club. She was 6 months old and he asked if it was baby in training. He was one of my greatest friends. 40 years Love You Big D

Our deepest condolences to Uncle Charlie. I will always remember most, the positive jovial energy that filled the room whenever I saw him. RIP Unc! Tony and Kathleen

To Kevin, Darryl, Jacinta, Joy and family, November 19, 1966, Charlie and Janie hosted our wedding reception in your home! Kevin you were I think 13, Alicia 12 and Darryl 4. He was "Jolly Charlie " to us. Charlie and Janie were always inspirational, encouraging, supportive and loving to us through the years! Charlie and Curt were fellow soldiers in the Civil Affairs Group, Fort Gordon Ga. We will forever miss Charlie and we send our love, sympathy and comfort to all of you! May our good friend's memories be a blessing to all of you! May his legacy live on! Curtis A.E. and Joyce E. Jones and family!

To the Greenaugh Family and his many friends, I want to express my deepest condolences for the loss of a truly wonderful person, citizen, and Veteran Soldier. I first met Charles "Big Daddy" more than 29 years ago while I was stationed at Fort Gordon. He quickly became a friend and we shared conversations about many subjects, including the Army and plans for my transition back to civilian life. His input was always enlightening and would always cause me to think a little deeper. He was truly an inspiring personality. I remember he would jokingly talk about the population of China (which was huge) and dream about how many of them would need insurance. I not only thought this was funny but it highlighted the spirit of a dedicated salesman. I also knew him through my association with Jazz Unlimited as we both enjoyed good music. I urge the Family and all his loved ones to stay strong and rest assured "Goodness and Mercy" will follow him in Eternity. God Bless.
