Charles was an active child and very independent. Very care free. He was always bringing home some type of award or certificate of achievement. Charles skipped 7th grade due to his academic achievements. He graduated Western High School June 14, 1999 in Las Vegas Nevada.
Charles decided not to attend college,instead he decided to follow his Uncle Kenneth in the field of stationary engineering (sheet metal work). After returning home to Baltimore for a brief period he returned to his other home in Las Vegas. The home of Uncle Kenny and Aunt D’J.
Charles began his journey into adulthood. He had a new born son Charles Andrew Vailes Jr.and begin his apprenticeship as a sheet metal worker. He subsequently became a Journey man in his field of choice.
His greatest achievement that he would want to be most remembered for are his children. Charles was such a wonderful and proud father. His children was his joy.He was always there for them whether it was for football, boxing, dance class or hair and nails. Yes he gave his daughter her first pedicure and also did her hair.
