I met Charlie and Marie for the first time when we had dinner together on June 30, 2025. I was shocked to hear of Charlie's passing less than 3 weeks later.
We had a wonderful time that evening in Carlsbad. Our get-together was triggered by chats that began earlier this year between Marie and I, in an online music game. Of course, I recognized right away that Marie is the chatty one and Charlie reserved, yet engaged in the conversation at hand. I thought their personalities complemented each other impressively.
The time passed quickly and as we left the restaurant, I said to Charlie that next time, we'll talk more about his story. Driving away, I felt happy to have met new friends and was looking forward to getting to know both of them better. I am still hopeful that this will happen, albeit very sadly, without Charlie there to tell his own story. Rest in peace.
