Dolores McGovern wrote a sympathy message

“With the passing of Charlie an indelible foot print has been left to reminds us all of the great Man Charlie was. He forever touched so many peoples lives especially the 80’ s striker soccer team. He molded them into great athletes and strong, responsible young ladies. His legacy goes on forever and will be timeless. Memories are eternal. We were lucky to have had the privilege of knowing Charlie and we thank him for all his tireless efforts in the girls soccer league. The McGovern Family”
