Title: We have sadly lost our friend Charlie Powel
Post by: Chris Cory - President 2012-14 -Life Memeber on April 08, 2016, 06:57:58 pm

It was posted over on Facebook that we have sadly lost our friend Charlie. I am really going to miss him and looked forward to seeing him each year at the GP. Man this sucks...
Charlie Jr, is planing on doing a celebration of life in around 3 weeks. I am sure more info will be available soon.

I just found out from Eric that it was complications from Pneumonia. He didn't want to go to the hospital and by the time he did, he was in the ICU. :-(

Just got the news from Charlie Jr. that his dad,'Da Blur', is now 'carving a skid' on the otherside. i had no idea he was ill. His friendship and entertaining personaliity will be missed! A true friend has been lost. But, the countless hours hanging out in the desert, at the GPs and fishing in the harbor at Morro Bay will never be forgotten. God speed Charlie! The Joneses

We've lost a "true character" one that will never be forgotten as long as we keep him in our hearts and stories.

Very sad
