Hi Grandpa. I miss you a lot. And I know everybody else in the family misses you also. You didn't deserve all of the pain you went through. You didn't deserve to die. The world can't live without a Charles Mclain (Grandpa Charlie) and neither can I. You are always in my thoughts, in my prayers, and in my heart. You left a big hole in the heart of everybody when you left. God took you way too early. I really wish I could see you again. I wish you were still here with us the family and all of your friends. I wish you never got Cancer. I wish you never had to go through all of that suffering and pain. And most of all I wish you were still here with us. I am so upset I never got a final goodbye, or a final I love you. You were an awesome big hearted, caring, kind, loving, fun, funny, cool, and most of the BEST Grandpa Charlie ever. You are so many things. You were just so many things that there aren't enough words in the world to tell you how awesome you were. I love you Grandpa! ~Maddie

I wanted to express my heartfelt condolences to all of the McLain family. For right now, there's no detour around grief, no shortcut through mourning. However, 2 Cor.4:7 says that God can give us, "... power beyond what is normal ", to go from one day to the next. This does not mean that we no longer cry, or that we forget. It means we recover. We recover because of our hope. Jesus Christ talked about our hope in John 5:28, which says, "... all those in the memorial tomb will hear his voice and come out ". Jesus was referring to the resurrection. That is our amazing hope! The Bible likens our hope to an anchor. Just like an anchor stabilizes a ship, our hope stabilizes us and keeps us from drowning in overwhelming sadness. 2 Cor.1:3 describes our Creator as, "... the God of all comfort ". One way that God comforts us is by moving people who care about us to give us words of encouragement that we need to hear. May the God of comfort be your comfort now, during this time of sorrow.

My condolences to all the hearts and souls that Charlie touched .
So many years , so many memories
I always looked up to Charlie , appreciated his wisdom , knowledge, and friendship
I learned many things over the years from him as he unselfishly gave his time to teach me things and help Pat n I and kids through many trials and tribulations of life
I called him last week to check on him something was tearing me up that I needed to call and say the best words I could come up with to show a sliver of my respect for him .
Charlie my friend
I will always remember you
Thank you for being a significant part of my life
God bless your soul and may you Rest In Peace brother till we meet again
