We're going to have his favorite pizza, and some cake <3 Lots of great memories of my brother Charlie (Buddy). he loved simple joys in life, and in recent years, was very happy to be enjoying lots of simple joys, nature, gardening, growing sunflowers, string beans,and getting back into fishing :) Holly and i will always remember him texting us, and asking if we could help him get a boat, so he could go out onto the water to fish :) it was a tuesday, nicely sunny day. we remember it like it was yesterday, walking outside, he was parked right out front, and he was very happy, excited, even had his fishing poles in the back of his car, and was talking about how he wanted to take Holly and i fishing. :) he had a very good heart, caring ,and very generous. i remember my brother getting me into collecting football cards, when i was younger. he would share his doubles, triples, he had of cards, and this week, i bought 3 new football cards on ebay, as a special tribute to my brother :) i always called him Buddy like many other people did :) his passing has been really hard on us all, but we try our best to remember so many good times, and memories over the years. it's hard, when we drive past his old place, we always use too see him standing outside on the porch. We miss him a lot, and he's in our thoughts every day <3 we like to honor him in a lot of ways, with nature, gardening, and sports memories from over the years. my brother was really into music too, playing the guitair. when a heavy metal song is played on a movie, show, or commercial, i think of Buddy :) in my journal today, i have some special memories pictures to share, of my brother from his earlier years. it'll be nice sharing the pictures today, his birthday, September 10th. You all will be with us in spirit this evening, when we have a pizza dinner in Charlie's honor <3

my brother loved Rhode Island, and had lots of trips there in the 1980's, with friends :) they use too go to heavy metal concerts in Providence. Charlie had some great times in Rhode Island over the years, it was always a special place to him :) 

my brother was a big fan of halloween, and often joined in on the halloween season fun :)

It’s nice that the family all got together to celebrate your brother Charlie’s heavenly birthday.
I love all the pics that you posted, he was a very handsome man and I know how difficult it is to lose a brother. Earlier this month would’ve been my little brother’s 63rd birthday if he had lived ..
Thanks for sharing all your precious memories with all of us .
Thanks for sharing some amazing flower pics also.
Best of luck to the commanders tonight, hopefully they beat the Packers :-) hugs
