Prayers for the family and friends
Mr Charles O’Quinn was a fine gentleman and friend. My heartfelt condolences to his family!
O’Quinn Family:
Jim and I were sad to learn that Charles has departed his earthly life. He was a good man and a fun friend to chat with. We enjoyed knowing him and dear Sara Beth, with whom I taught for many years at Williamsburg Technical College. We send our sympathy and prayers to you during this sad time of transition.
I am sorry for your loss. Charles was a childhood friend, living less that a block away from me in Lumberton. I was honored when he asked me to be an usher at his wedding, and I consider myself fortunate to have been his friend.
O’Quinn Family,
So sorry for your loss. Our thoughts and prayers are going out to you.
Condolences to the O’Quinn Family. Mr. Charles O’Quinn was one of the finest men that I have ever known, I worked along with him on the Williamsburg County Farm Bureau Board for many years and he was a dedicated board member locally and in our State Office, he will be greatly missed and Heaven has gained an Angel.
