Charles's Story
Life
O.K. Lets See
The truth is life has really been pretty great for me. Although I think it will get awesome before its over. I did my time after high school in the USMC as a Plane Captain. From there I came home and got a job with Federal Armored Express, empting parking meters. After that I started working for Rollins posting billboards, it was at this time I met my wife Nett. Snatched her from my best friend oops. We got hitched and I took a job with Lance driving a truck. We had my son Robert and shortly after that my 1st daughter Amber. Then it did'nt take long to have our last Tiffany. Got the tubes disconnected after Tiff shewwwwhhhh. We bought a house in WVa and from my old flames parents at a forclosure imagine that, and they said I would'nt amount to nothing "Bought Their House Cash Ha Ha". We grew tired of the city so I got a transfer from Lance and we moved to the hills. After a couple of years we started our own business in Harrisonburg Va., Home of the dukes JMU. After 10 years of working 7 days a week one at Walker on the weekends, and the business the other 4 days. Oh there were a few things in between like raising the children and building our dream home, graduations, vacations, massive holidays, cause I love millions of lights. All of a sudden all the children had moved on. Robert went traveling started a business in Georgia "Remodeling", Amber went to college to study teaching then moved over to law school.

e met a man, and bought a house in Martinsburg WVa. Oh she currently has given us two of the best gifts we have to date, my grandsons Dillon & Logan. Our 3rd and last to leave home was my tomboy "tinky", She went to school for cosmotolgy and is currently buying her own shop. She works as the graphics producer at the televison station T.V. 3. She is married to a fine young man, and they bought a house in Shenandoah Va. Whoa, now thats a mouthfull. Well with that said none of the adults now wanted to run the company so we sold it and retired Dec.31, 2004. Thats where Ollie comes in, our adopted dog in the pic's, Oopps I mean son ;) actually my pain in the buttttt. After about a year my wife Annette decided she had about all of me she could handle on a day to day basis, so she went out and got a job, ewueee not me I'm still at home and writing this letter. In closing I have to say its been a wounderful life of chasing dreams and catching most of them. I never thought it would turn out so well. I do miss the passing of loved ones and remember them often. My Parents and both of our grandparents, and a few close friends. This is the only hard part of life for me, but I do cherrish the memories each and every one thru life.... Hope to make many many more. SO LETS GET STARTED ......................................................................Chuck :) :) :) P.S. You can give us a call any time and chat just leave me a note and I'll forward my phone
