I met Mr. Westmoreland at Summer Place nursing and rehab and he was such a special and sweet man. Everyday he would come talk to me and tell me stories of his past and one day he even sang me his high school song!! I was very sad to hear he was gone but I am happy to know he is in no more pain and probably making everyone in Heaven laugh :) I sure will miss talking with him

Charles was my Father. First I would like to thank everyone for the kind words, condolences; and for those that were able to come to the funeral and/or the reception; thanks for coming and showing your support for our family.
It is a challenge to include everything about a person's life in one discussion; but I want to mention my Father's participation in the South East Texas State Fair in the latter part of the last century. Dad, as you know, worked for the Texas Department of Agriculture; and worked at the SE TX State Fair every year he was employed, in various roles. There were lots of livestock to be judged; cows, bulls, pigs, rabbits, etc - you name it. Plus the rodeo. Dad worked the AG booth and was involved in all aspects of the Fair as far as the AG department was concerned. We always went - Debbie and I sometimes even helped with whatever Dad needed help with. This was a big part of my childhood besides the marathon fishing trips with Dad on Galveston Bay. I learned a lot about livestock from Dad and I would spend work days with him when I was off from school or during the summer. That was an enjoyable time for me; plus I did learn something new just about every day I helped him with his job. He was involved with the various Agricultural Research Stations and even worked the TX-Mexican border on several occasions for the AG department. We will all miss you Dad.
