Condolence: I remember Charlie hiring me at No Tomatoes restaurant. It was awhile ago. He was always good to me. It was a great place to work. I also remember some of stories he would tell. He had a great sence of humor. I have many good memories of him. I'm very sorry for your loss. Prayers are with your family.

Condolence: Katrina I am so sorry for your loss. May your memories and time ease some of your pain. Love you

Condolence: Katrina and Girls - You know there are not enough words. I knew Charlie years ago from his Auburn days but got to know him better at Schooner. I will miss his silly laugh, his silly jokes and his "I dont give a crap" attitude. Let's all put on a golf visor, crack a smile with a twinkle in our eyes and live a little more like Charlie did. There's a little bit of Charlie in in us all just dying to get out. Love you.

Condolence: Katrina, My thoughts and prayers are with you. I am so sorry for your loss. Judi O.

Condolence: Can't be there today for the gathering, but am thinking of Charlie with a smile on my face. Remember all the laughs, my thoughts are with all of you.

Condolence: Charlie had a deep love of life and he was willing to share it with those around him. He will be sorely missed, but the fond memories will always be there.

Condolence: Katrina I am so deeply saddened for you and Charlie's family. You two were such a great pair, I loved hearing about your next winter trip and seeing the pics after! I wish I had had a chance to get to know Charlie better. I have fond memories of your wedding celebration at Schooner, you singing and Charlie watching you with such love and admiration in his twinkling eyes. I enjoyed the fruits of his cooking lessons...that lobstah mac & cheese was delish! We are here for you Kat and the community has definitely lost something special in Damariscotta town! May he haunt us all! Deepest Condolences from the Heath family of Jefferson.

Condolence: Over the last 20 years we had some great laughs on the golf course with Rob, Rod, Scott, and Mike. Dianne and I are thinking of you Kat and the rest of his family. The king of jokes has left the building.

Condolence: Charlie, Charlie, Charlie. God I loved the guy. He was the first Mainer with whom I became friends during my first summer (2013). We shared a love of golf and good times. We played at Boothbay and drank in Newcastle and Damariscotta. Coming back from Boothbay the music would blast and he would play the air guitar. We would argue about what group we were listening to. Charlie usually won. On the course he would win a hole and say ‘Winner winner, chicken dinner’. Great times with he and Katrina. We are all less for this loss. May God bless and keep him. Charlie, I will see you on the other side my friend.

Condolence: Dear Family, The Lapes are all so sad to hear of Charlie's death. We have such fond memories of first being neighbors, our parents friendships, and sharing birthday and weddings with you. Charlie was my first boyfriend (6), until Peggy MacVane stole him away. He was the cutest, skinniest little guy. My heart goes out to his whole family. With love, Kris Lape

Condolence: I still can't believe you are gone...you always seemed so invincible to me. Our family and our lives are forever changed without you here. There will be no new funny, crazy Charlie stories to tell...but no doubt your stories will be told...heaven know there are A LOT! They will be told with love and laughter...just as you would want it to be. I will love always and miss you forever. Your little sister Priscilla

Condolence: I skied and golfed with Charlie for many years and I must say Charlie was one of a kind - He always made the time more exciting with his wit and humor - He will be missed by everyone he touched in this great state - I hope Charlie will exist in an eternal state of IRIE!

Condolence: Charlie was great friend, i will miss leaning on the deck rail at Schooners and talking.....i believe we will talk again some day my friend... Our thought and prayers are with his family.

Condolence: A tragic loss for family, friends and the community. Charlie's contributions to the Edward Myers Marine Conservation Fund through his support of the Pemaquid Oyster Festival was just one of many little known ways he "paid it forward." Never one for center stage, during the Oyster Festival he was always manning a grill, serving cooked oysters, side by side with his staff. We will take the advice of the Notice writer and for all the rest of our days, "tell more jokes, jam on our air guitar and be unapologetically who we are and keep a little more Charlie in this world." We look forward to the event on Saturday. Our warmest wishes to Katrina and Charlie's family.

Condolence: Devastating news about our friend....and you are right....the world will never be the same. We can't be there on the 12th but there will be many memorials,in his honor, for the rest of our lives. Love and hugs to Katrina and his 3 girls. We know how much he loved you all!
