    They say it takes a moment to find something special in a person, an hour to appreciate them, and a day to love them, but it takes an entire lifetime to forget them.  This so encapsulates the feelings of our entire staff at Ocean's Reach.  Charlie touched each of our lives dearly and he will forever stay in our hearts.  Our love and unending support go out to Eva, Lisa and Tina.
