Outside of his work and fraternal commitments, Charles was passionate about the things and sports teams he loved. He was an avid fisherman and loved traveling to Arkansas and taking trips out West. He was a dedicated, passionate fan of both LSU and the Dallas Cowboys. He shared a special, deep bond with his cherished furbaby, Bella.
