In Memoriam ~ Charlie Taylor

"Time Flies, suns rise and shadows fall.
Let time go by. Love is forever over all."


We all knew Charlie. We knew his spirit, his grit and his will to do better. We knew Charlie as a giver; a giver of encouragement, of love and support. We all knew Charlie as a runner, an over the top runner. But above all, and beyond his running, we knew Charlie as a dedicated family man, a son, a brother, a husband, a father, and grandfather. We all knew Charlie as a friend.

Today, we will celebrate Charlie's life. Although we will all miss him tremendously, we are all comforted by the fact that each one of our lives was touched in a positive way, just because we knew Charlie.

"It is time for us to let you go, but we won't say goodbye;
We will look for you in the rainbow, way up in the sky.
When the sun rises in the morning when the world is new,
We will look for Charlie, way up in the sky.

It is time for us to let you go, but we won't say goodbye;
We will look for you in the rainbow, way up in the sky.
When the sun sets, when the day is all through,
We will look for Charlie, way up in the sky.

Time for us to part now, Charlie, but we won't say goodbye;
We will look for you in the rainbow, shining in the sky.
Every waking moment,  we will think of you.
We will look for Charlie, way up in the sky."

We love you Charlie Taylor.
