Recognizing our Newport News heroes! Love this!!!
Every time I see my Cousin Charles I’m reminded of how many times I admired this person for all the good he did, not knowing he was family. It wouldn’t have made any difference. The respect would have been the same either way. I do wish I could have met him, and others within the family to get their views and ideas personally, shake hands, maybe even hug them. I appreciate even today how much of an impact he had and still has within the community. Thank you Lisa for your insight and sharing all of what’s to know about our talented family.
Definitely a hug! He’d have welcomed you with open arms!
