To Charlie’s family, I’m so sorry for your loss. Charlie used to come into my shop in Warren, and after his first time in the shop we became friends. He was so quick witted, and even only knowing him for a short time, we joked that we were probably long lost cousins because we liked the same things (football, food, boxing, playing hockey) and had the same sense of humor. I could tell right away he had such a caring and helpful spirit, I mentioned I was thinking about a school for my kids and he got right on his phone and called someone he knew who had a son attending the school. I’m sure there are a ton of people who he touched or made an impression on in his day to day goings on, he was that type of guy. I always looked forward to his random visits and I will miss him. Sorry for your loss.
Dave, Kathy, and family. We are just heartbroken for you. Sending love and hugs. Charlie was a special part of all our lives growing up. God bless him and all of you.
With deepest sympathy and love. The Dziedzic Family.

Charlie could not have been more welcoming and friendly to me when I joined Associated Builders and Contractors and as I got to know him during my time on the BOD at ABC. I want to wish Dave and the rest of his family my sincerest condolences. Although it’s a sad moment, thinking of Charlie and the time spent together puts a smile on my face. Rest in peace my friend.
Byrne Family, My heartfelt condolences to you all. I always enjoyed seeing Charlie and every time, he took the time to make me feel important. He was a very caring person who went out of his way to have a conversation and ask how you are doing. He was a true gentleman and I am so sad to hear of his passing. My deepest sympathy to you all during this very difficult time. Kim Whyte.
To Charlie’s extended family: I am so sad to hear this news. Charlie was a wonderful person, and I always enjoyed seeing him at Associated Builders and Contractors events. Most recently, he and I caught up and shared many laughs at last year’s Polo event, and more recently at the ABC event at the Grist Mill Tavern. On both occasions, he seemed very happy with where he was in his professional and personal lives. We will all miss him and will keep your family in our prayers.
Charlie was a great person and will be remembered as such. I have many fond and vivid memories of him. May he rest in peace. My sincerest condolences to the Byrne family.
