Charles, born February 16, 1922 grew up in Monroe, riding the street car down Jackson Street and swimming in the old salt water pool near the river.

He, along with Willie Lois and their daughters, moved to Shreveport in 1958 and spent forty-six happy years there enjoying his church, singing in the choir, playing the saw at events, and growing a big garden. At the age of 82 they moved back to Monroe to be close to their daughters and joined Emmanuel Baptist Church.
