Acquaintance of the 60's
I knew 'Charlie' as a teenager. This would be in the 1963–1968-time frame. I never considered him a friend even though he hung out in the same loose knit gang we all belonged to. We weren't thugs back then but bored teenagers doing trivial pranks in the neighborhood and picking on one another. Overall, I'd say we had fun and didn't do the community a whole lot of damage in the process, but in 1968 I started a part time job which took me away from the gang and onto bigger and better things.
Charlie passed away young and no idea what took him, but as a teen he was very thin and rather tall - plus, he smoked a lot. RIP Charlie. The gang will meet again at the Trout home, cook their steaks, drink their booze and make obscene phone calls while the ole man is picking his wife up in downtown DC.
