The Falcon family posted the following statement on the Facebook page of their church:
“Today was a lovely and lovely morning in heaven. Charlie ran into the arms of the Lord as He summoned him to his eternal home, and he never looked back. We can’t help but feel how much we will miss his infectious laugh, his big smile that brightened every room, the way he always greeted you with an embrace and ended the conversation with a “God bless you,” and of course his silly and witty personality that would have you laughing for days. Charlie understood this was only a temporary home, so even though we sit here with broken hearts and selfish thoughts about how he would have made it back home with us, we may find some comfort in the knowledge that. Nobody has ever had any reason to question his strength or his confidence in the Lord. Serving God, loving his wife, loving his family, and loving people was Charlie’s mission in life. And he did just that, and he did it incredibly effectively. Through it all, we know that Charlie would give a million times over to help even one person become closer to God. We can never fully comprehend God’s plan for his life, and we already mourn him terribly. We understand that this is not farewell; rather, we will see you soon.
Once more, we are incredibly grateful for all of your love and support at this trying time for our family. We were definitely encouraged by your prayers at just the right time. We simply ask that you keep up your prayers since these will be difficult days without the glue that kept this family together.
