Condolence From: Rick Foley
Condolence: I worked for Charlie at MCC for 3 years in the early 70's. His early influence and guidance was a primary reason I studied agronomy and spent my career in the golf course industry. His professionalism, knowledge & humility are his legacy. The industry, GCSAA and most of all his family enjoyed then lost a very special person. I hope he hits them long, straight and not too often on his heavenly golf course.

Condolence: Dear Tadge Family,

I personally and the entire GCSAA family are saddened to hear of Charlie's passing. The lifetime of work that he did for the golf industry and especially the golf course management profession has made a great impact on so many lives. We appreciate all of the time and talent that he shared with us and will be thinking of both he and Carolyn as we all gather soon for our annual conference in Orlando where they both will be greatly missed.

Peter Grass, CGCS
GCSAA President

Condolence: I spoke to Charlie about a month ago and I was so glad I made the call when I did. Carolyn and Charlie were neighbors 2 streets over when we all lived in South Euclid. Charlie was one of the finest men I ever knew and he loved his family dearly. My sincerest condolences to the family.

Condolence From: Northridge High School Alumni
Condolence: To the family,
May God give you for every storm... a rainbow,
For every tear... a smile,
For every care... a promise,
And a blessing in each trial.
For every problem life sends, a faithful friend to share,
For every sigh... a sweet song,
And an answer for each prayer.
