    The first day I met Charlie. My car had broken down in front of the Restaurant and I was pulling a fit. Charlie rolled up, got out, looked at the steaming motor and said come on inside. It wasn't quite opening time yet but he sat me at the bar and said i'll be right back. He reappeared on the other side of the bar and handed me the phone and a beer. We spent the next two hours talking and then he drove me to my house himself. I will never forget his kindness, hospitality and generosity. He was a colorful enthusiastic character and a fearless entrepreneur . Rest in Peace Charlie
