With Heartfelt Sympathy during your loss. It was a pleasure knowing Charles for 17 years and having him as a friend. May God grant comfort during this difficult time
My name is Jim Murphy. I was Charlies apprentice during the last sages of building the Cortland Paper Mill, he treated me like was a journeyman. In later years we worked together at RETNOLDS and he worked for me when I was a Forman. It was always a pleasure to see Charlies coming, I knew that was one election that would do his job/
