...[E]very day is a gift and should never be taken for granted or wasted.

As one who nearly died 2x (in a fire as a kid and pneumonia), I can attest that, every day that we breathe in the air is gravy... something to be savored. I can also attest that its way too easy to take for granted the time that we have with family and loved-ones.

Whether it be short or long value the time that you have, for in the end, its all you have.

Charles,

I remember when you were a new Tug member and I helped you out with some technical questions you had. What a shock to learn of your passing. I'd like your family to know that you were well thought of here at Tug. You will be missed.

I lost my mom when I was 2 and I lost my dad when I was 7, so I know what it's like to lose a parent and while not the same as you being here in person for them, your family will always have the memories and warmth you gave them.

My heartfelt condolences to your family and children.

RIP

Richard

Well said, Richard. Charles' family will miss him terribly and so will we on TUG. It went all so fast. I still can't believe it.

RIP, Charles.
 
I shed a tear for all those that pass, but I shed many for those that pass with non adult children.

My heart goes out to Charles' family. May they find peace in the memories of their time together.
 
So sorry to read this news. Praying for his family.
 
This is very sad news.

I have a six year old (birthday today!) and a soon to be 3 year old. THIS news is the exact reason why I am researching timeshares. It is all too easy to get caught up with work and then the days go by, then the weeks, then the years. I want the family to look forward to, and anticipate, upcoming vacations together. Because I purchased the HGVC VIP membership last year, we DO have vacations already scheduled/booked in the next few months. Last year, we went to Vegas for four days at the HGVC Las Vegas Strip and the littlest one keeps saying he wants to go back to "Begas."
