We will miss Charles very much. His wonderful sense of humor and friendly smile made him a very special guy to his little cousin (me). My parents and I spent many, many Christmases with Charles and his family over the years. My father, Robert A Darner, is a first cousin to Charles and he fondly remembers going to visit his cousins in Des Moines many times growing up. Our sincere condolences to Freda and to Carol for their loss of their husband and father.
