I have had a special bond with Charlie since I was a child in HongKong and he was a young man. We wrote to us for many years after he moved to US and I to Australia. But eventually, we lost touch. About 8 years ago, a call came out of the blue from him and since then, we have been closer than ever, thanks to the ease of constant contact afforded by email. I was very happy to visit Charlie and Hony in Seattle in 2007 and then, just 2 months ago, we here in WA, were so lucky to have Charlie visit us even though it was only for a few days. How wonderful for us that he came when he did.
Charlie was very special. He had the biggest heart and the most generous spirit of anyone I ever met, a prodigious love of life and profound love for everyone in his family. He had the knack of making each person feel special. Who can say why someone's life ends when it dones but certainly Charlie lived his 71 years to the full and has now gone to his well-earned rest.
Fly rest and be at peace, beloved cousin.
Love and healing thoughts go out to all family and friends who love him, especially Hony and his children.##imported-begin##dr charmaine saunders##imported-end##
