    " Brother "Charlie" Boutwell will be remembered as a fine Christian gentleman and family man, who know Jesus as his personal savior... and walked in His foot steps. Charlie was a member of my Sunday School Class at Memorial Baptist Church, and an inspiration to me. This is not the end, but the beginning of EVERLASTING LIFE for Charlie with his Jesus, in that place prepared for His own by Jesus Himself. Rest in blessed peace, brother Charlie! You deserve to be with Jesus! "
