To the Pechin family,
I am saddened to read of Charlie's passing. I had the pleasure of taking care of Barbara and at the same time became friends with Charlie. He was one of the nicest people I have ever met. He could always bring a smile to your face and a chuckle to go along with it. He truly loved his family and was and still is very proud of all of you. May you remember all the wonderful memories. God bless all of you. Fondly, Marcia Basehore
