Kathy,
I can't relate to the emotions you are feeling and going through, but I do know your ability to see blue skies when others looking at the same sky see an overcast one; will serve you well as you move beyond this stage of your life. I wish you peace and rejuvenation. Sincerely, Jim Stuelke

Brian & family..Sorry to hear of your loss. Our thoughts & prayers are with you..

God Bless the Koehler Family, Cathy, Chuck, Brian, Chris, Tim I will miss your DAD and Husband.... Charlie was so good to me and my business, Kenny's Tile will always Remember and Cherish the relationship that we have had with the Koehler Family for over 50 years. "Boy did Charlie and Kenny have some stories........

I loved coming into work on Friday mornings. Once he had a break from the phones and the radios in the trucks had quieted, Charlie would ask, "Can you believe what happened on Knots Landing last night!?" And once I stopped working there, in the later years of his life, Charlie would call me and talk about who was in the obituaries. He had wonderful stories about his friends and employees. My parents, both in a memory care facility, who would be heartbroken to hear of his passing. They shared wonderful memories of trips they took and the fun they had. I love Charlie Koehler. He was a wonderful listener and friend. Hope he's listening, still.

To My Dear Friend Chris and Family - 

I/My Family all send their condolences.  I know your Dad will be greatly missed.  Cherish the memories of Charlie's great wit, strength, sense of humor and kindness!

Love, Stacey

Kathy dear, so sorry to learn of Charlie's passing!  My late Vic  and I go way back in business with Charlie.......years of memories! May he Rest in Peace!!

I am so sorry to hear this.He was an amazing man!it's the end of an era.He helped me a lot.I also learned a lot from him.He will be missed.

To my dearest family, some things I'd like to say...
but first of all, to let you know, that I arrived okay.
I'm writing this from heaven. Here I dwell with God above.
Here, there's no more tears of sadness; here is just eternal love.

 Please do not be unhappy just because I'm out of sight.
 Remember that I'm with you every morning, noon and night.
 That day I had to leave you when my life on earth was through,
 God picked me up and hugged me and He said, "I welcome you."

 It's good to have you back again; you were missed while you were gone.
As for your dearest family, they'll be here later on.
I need you here badly; you're part of my plan.
There's so much that we have to do, to help our mortal man.

 God gave me a list of things, that he wished for me to do.
And foremost on the list, was to watch and care for you.
And when you lie in bed at night, the day's chores put to flight.
God and I are closest to you....in the middle of the night.

When you think of my life on earth, and all those loving years
because you are only human, they are bound to bring you tears.
But do not  be afraid to cry; it does relieve the pain.
Remember there would be no flowers, unless there was some rain.

I wish that I could tell you all that God has planned.
But if I were to tell you, you wouldn't understand.
But one thing is for certain, though my life on earth is o'er.
I'm closer to you now, than I ever was before.

There are many rocky roads ahead of you and many hills to climb;
but together we can do it by taking one day at a time.
It was always my philosophy and I'd like it for you too...
that as you give unto the world, the world will give to you.

If you can help somebody who's in sorrow and pain,
then you can say to God at night......"My day was not in vain."
And now I am contented....that my life has been worthwhile,
knowing as I passed along the way, I made somebody smile.

So if you meet somebody who is sad and feeling low,
just lend a hand to pick him up, as on your way you go.
When you're walking down the street, and you've got me on your mind;
I'm walking in your footsteps only half a step behind.

And when it's time for you to go.... from that body to be free,
remember you're not going.....you're coming here to me.
