While another mourner wrote: “Deepest sympathy to Hazel and family on the sad passing of Charlie. A proper gentleman, I was proud to know him. We always had a laugh when we met and he would inquire about how the team was getting on. He was so helpful and generous to Castle Villa FC over the years. Rest in peace Charlie,you deserve it.”

And another added: “Sincere condolences to Hazel and all Charlie's family on his passing from this life. May he rest in eternal peace. Although we did not meet again after I left Ireland 36 years ago, I still hold very fond memories of all my interactions with Charlie after he returned home from the UK and later as he and Hazel established their home and very successful business at Belan. We had a very strong business and personal relationship and Charlie was a true gentleman with an amazing business ability. He will be greatly missed by Hazel and all his family, as well as by all the staff at C R Wynne, all his business partners and farmer friends. Until we meet again Charlie, rest peacefully.”
