My buddy Charlie
My good friend Charlie passed away yesterday. He posted here quite a bit in Hat's time here and more recently on big days like the Derby. He was a big executive at CBS and came "this" close to making a movie/documentary about the Hat. Jim really liked Charlie told me he was a true friend.
He is a great friend with a heart of gold inside that rough and tough exterior. Quick story when I was taking care of my Mom over a decade ago I was "away" from home for a few days because of a mistake I made. I was worried sick cause there was nobody around to look after Mom. When I came home my neighbor told me a big man had come to the house every morning and was looking after Mom taking her outside for some air etc. He described Charlie to a "T" and to this day Charlie never told me what he had done for Mom. He just did it. I never mentioned I knew of what he had done, just loved him even more because of it!
RIP Charlie
