Not sure what to say?





The timing for the reminder. How fragile is life. A stranger to another. That it's still worth the fight. May the good people you have stay safe 2021.

A notification mail about an anniversary. Allow this stranger to drop a message. Charlie, I am still here like you. If I could play something for you today, we will stand fight and we will rise: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qJr8jiriqs4.

Just read your long comment on YouTube. "Run" by Collective Soul. It absolutely broke my heart and those that know me know I don't easily break. When i seen someone write "we're praying for you" and then later they wrote "RIP" I just couldn't deal. I'm sorry for all your hard times near the end...but i believe those struggles made you and got you to where you are today. A perfect place of peace and happiness. I hope to see you one day and give you a hug and say "thank you" for helping me feel something again inside me. God bless you and I'll see you...but not yet...

Saw your post on MikeTap4321 Youtube channel, "Run" by Collective Soul. I'm having a bit of a hard time lately, but cannot compare to yours. We don't know each other, but I am saddened as I continued reading the comment updates. I cannot imagine how it feels for the people close to you. You reminded me, when there's Life, there's Hope. There's still Good in the world. Thank You. Rest In Peace, Charlie.

May the Lord bless your soul Mr. Golmon. I read of your struggle on YouTube on Collective Soul's song Run

Well, you don't have to run anymore. I hope your family has found peace. Maybe give your family a nudge or a God wink to let them know you are still around watching over them in ways we can't on this earth. It helped me and others who are still in mourning to know it really is going to be alright.

Just listened to the song we made together. Dang, your lead was perfect. I wish we could have made more together. I wish so bad that we could make more music together. Thank you for giving me that, I listen to it proudly, just the same as I wear that necklace you gave me. It's hard for me to play the guitar, but I guess you would have wanted me to be better than you, to transcend you. I don't think that's gonna happen, but know this. I still have that Epiphone, the black one that you loved. I can't bring myself to touch it. I wish you were here, dammit. I love you forever, Dad. I miss you so badly.

Hey Dad. I'm in the lab now. It's the lab where you worked at, and where you dropped your samples off, MMU. Man, I wish you were the one bringing me my samples for the day. Man, I wish I could see you for one more round. Dammit, I wish you could give me the unit walkaround.

I'm here, and I'm trying. I think that I'm gonna be OK.

Dad, Daddy, Poppy, Charlie Golmon Jr., I miss you. This is your son, Trey. If there is a feast at the end of the road, I know that God will oversee us, but you will be at the King's end of the table. Help us get through this, please. It hurts so bad.

Dad, I miss you so much. I try and remember all the good times we had, but still I want so many more! I know I'm being greedy, but I lived when I was doing cool stuff with you, really LIVED...we experienced such beauty in the world (Houmas House, being there for my first skydive, eating at all those good restaurants, Memphis train trip, seeing all those movies, riding the trike), and I will never forget that; now that you're gone, I merely exist. You were a brilliantly burning fire, but you didn't burn out quick, you lasted a long time...and now that you've left us, the world has become much darker and colder. I love you forever, and I wear that necklace you gave me every day. I keep grabbing it when things get tough. I really hope I can see you soon again. Love, Trey

Dad, I love you so much. I love you more than anything and everything, and I want you back so bad. I lived when we were together, we did so much cool stuff. Now I merely exist. You were a bright flame that burned for a long time, and now that you're gone, the world has become much darker and colder for it.

Charlie, thank you for the *great* memories of listening to you play your guitar/music when I was younger. You were always so kind & I'll never forget your smile & the gift of laughter & happinessp you gave to all those around you.

May all that know you be comforted with Our Father's great love & strength. I will always treasure the memories of you & your family as we all grew up on Winchester Road. I didnt know until March 10th that you had joined heaven & the angels. I wish I could've been with you & your dear family and friends at your beautiful service, but I know its all okay because I know your understanding character & 'Dont Worry - Be Happy!' spirit. You & your family/friends are in my thoughts & prayers. Thanks for your sweet friendship Charlie. +++

Much love & comfort to you & all of your family,
Kelly

How can I miss your laughter?
Those happy echoes leave me never.
How can I miss your golden smile,
Now it's in every dawn forever?
Can I ever forget your awful jokes?
I keep them with my treasures.
How could ever forget you, Charlie,
It's like you're here every day?
How can I possibly miss you, Charle,
You never went away?

Charlie was not only my brother, he was
my hero. I could call him and he would stop what he was doing to talk to me. Charlie always made anything better. I can honestly say I know what unconditional love is thanks to momma and my wonderful brothers. I will miss you with all of my heart and soul. I love you big brother. You have earned your angel wings!

In all my life, I never once heard Charlie say a bad word about anyone. He always had a smile on his face and loved to make you laugh. The world is a dimmer and unhappier place without him in it. Love you, Charlie.

Please forgive me for not being able to attend as I am out of state for another passing and can't be home until late Saturday, but know my thoughts and prayers will be with you all. Love, John and Judy Cox Barker.
