Charlie Joseph John was loved deeply by many near and far. Spring and I, his sons Aurum and Rome, his siblings Jay and Emily, and many other friends and family members will miss him greatly.

We will always cherish and remember Charlie’s boundless passion for life, his love of music and art, his devotion to his loved ones, his amazing sense of humor, and a smile that could light up any room. When Charlie cared about someone, he would go to great lengths to help them in their time of need. He'd offer them the shirt off his back just to make sure they'd be okay. The night he passed away, I had the privilege of sharing a walk with him at the park across the street from our home. Our hour-long walk and conversation brings me nothing but joyful memories and confident expectation that I will see Charlie again one day.

Though his time on Earth was cut short, we are truly comforted knowing that he is in heaven with Jesus. We look forward to the day when we will be reunited with him in glory and spend forever together!

In lieu of flowers, please consider making a gift to 4KIDS so that other young adults like Charlie can experience a place to belong surrounded by people who love them.

For those who would like to attend, Charlie's memorial service will be held on Wednesday, June 19th at 5 p.m. at Calvary Chapel Fort Lauderdale inside the Banquet Hall. All are welcome!
