RIP Charlie Giovino
I just got word from John that Charlie Giovino passed away yesterday. Charlie attended the 'toga getaway many times with John and contributed much to make the trip the pleasure that it always turned out to be. RIP, Charlie, you'll be sadly missed.

My dad used to say that the good guys go first.
Sad news. My condolences to the family.
RIP indeed.

This is very sad news. I was looking forward to the day John brought Charlie back with him to a future 'Toga party....
My sympathies go out to Charlie's family, and to John and all the rest of Charlie's friends...

He was a LOT of fun to shoot the breeze with at the Spa.

How sad, he had a great sense of humor.
I always enjoyed talking to him at the earlier
Toga parties.
