I was deeply sadden by the news that I received today of the sudden passing of a truly wonderful man. I was blessed with knowing him for only a few years, but he has touched my life forever. He was a hardworking, devoted, caring gentleman. He will be greatly missed by many. My only consolation is that he will be at rest with his beloved wife.

I just want to give my condolences. My mom and dad were Bill and Dolly Whitcomb who lived up near the round house on Lauppe Rd. My father always talked about Mr. and Mrs. Sanger and what wonderful people they were to him. My prayers are with you.

Charlie was such a special person (and so was June) he never complained but always had a smile. They each brought special moments to my life that I will treasure always.
