Charles H. Asp

Charles was preceded in death by his parents, Carl and Pearl, his sister Arlene, and his nephew Danny.

Charlie was a person of love and laughter. He was always willing to help out whenever and wherever needed. A huge hole is in our hearts that will be made less in time as we remember the good times. Rest in peace, Charlie. Love, Carol and Steve
