Sr Director - Head of GCDO Business & Technology Capabilities

I have not had a chance to post this here yet due to the circumstances, but since I have had so many people asking for an update I wanted to get the message out. As many of you know, my wife had been battling an aggressive form of colon cancer for the past three years. Unfortunately Erica lost her battle on January 19, 2023. Instead of writing too much here, I've linked a recording to the livestream of her services for those who would like to watch and get a better sense of who she was and how much she meant to all of us. What I would like to write though is a sincere THANK YOU to all of you who attended, reached out, sent your support and prayers, etc. It has been incredibly meaningful to me and my children. I'm also thankful to have an amazing organization who has given me the time to process this and get my feet back under me. Know that I will be back soon, as this has only served to further fuel my fire to help find better treatment options so no other family has to suffer what we have gone through. Thank you - Charlie https://lnkd.in/gvtdr3gm

I’m so sorry for your loss Charlie. I too lost my spouse a couple years ago too soon and so I know the devastation. Be kind to yourself as you take it day by day and sometimes minute by minute. Keep your faith, and lean on your family and friends for all of this will be your strength as you continue to move forward. May God keep and bless you and your children💔🙏

I am so sorry for your loss. Your wife was very brave and she fought for all of you. I know how difficult and painful it is. My son passed away last May of a cancer too. Nothing I can say can release your pain but I wish to express my deepest sympathy
