I wanted to wait until after my Dad's funeral service to post this. Pop I hope that you knew how much I loved you and how much you influenced not only me, but my two sons. All the special times we shared between just the two of us and with my family will never be forgotten. When that day comes for me, we will take that walk up in Heaven together like I told you. Until then, we will do the best that we can to honor your memory for the rest of lives. Thank you for a life well lived and all the love you showed Libby, me and my family. God is indeed good to those who trust and believe in his son Jesus Christ. You demonstrated that to us everyday of your life. I'm so very thankful for having such an great example and blueprint for the way we should lead our lives. We miss you, and again thanks for everything you did for our family.

Oh how I will miss Uncle Charles. I will miss his lemon pie at Christmas. He always made sure I knew it was on the dessert table waiting for me. William, it is up to you to carry on that tradition. I am counting on you! Most of all, I will miss his sense of humor and happy-go-lucky personality. Conversations with him were always light and full of laughter. Each time I have met a member of Lugoff First Baptist, I ask them if they know Charles Pate. The answer is always, "Yes, I know ole Charlie. He is a great fella." And yes, he was indeed a great fella. Lots of love and prayers for Britt, Pam, Andrew, Monica and William. You all are such a devoted family and you boys have been so faithful to love, care for, and spend time with him. I hope my grandchildren love me one day like you loved him.

My Grandaddy—more than just a grand parent, he was a wonderful friend and mentor. From as far back as I can remember until Monday, Oct. 14th, 2024 when he entered the kingdom of heaven, I have visited or spoken with him at least once per week. Often much more frequently than that! He used to pick my brother and I up from elementary, middle and high school so that we didn’t have to take the bus, so we were together almost every day during that time of my life. He taught us how to work hard, that punctuality is a good thing, and that you should always tell the truth. As an adult I would go have my lunch with him every workday that I could unless he had an appointment or something and then would still visit with him for a while on my way home. Now I am wishing I had stayed and reminisced with him a little longer each of those times, but I am very thankful for all of the time I was able to spend with him during all the stages of my life and I will always cherish his memory and the lessons that he taught me. His loss hurts on a scale I can hardly describe, but knowing how strongly my grandaddy trusted and believed in God gives me a resounding sense of peace knowing he is in Heaven and reunited with Libby and has ultimate healing through Christ. Cheers to a wonderful man who lived a full and happy life! His memory will be carried on by the future Pates! Rest in peace, Grandaddy. I love you so much and I will miss you!
