Thanks Dono for keeping this Web site going. Comments here may diminish over time, but the positive effect Charlie has had on me and others will continue to be with us and those we influence. That is Charlie's legacy. Love to Barb and the family.

We all miss Charlie. However, his legacy continues, not only through his children and grand children, but also through the many people he influenced, helped, guided and supported.. Of course, I am one of those people. In some way, I feel that my own daughter and grand daughters are part of his legacy.
My love goes to all of you.

Yesterday was the 1 year anniversary of Dad's passing. We visited the VA Cemetery and had a 7-Up (his favorite beverage) toast to Dad.
We miss Dad every day, but know that he is looking down on us all, and his been giving strength to Mom, as she battled ovarian cancer this last year, resulting in a remarkable recovery.
2013 was a difficult year for the family, but we all made it through and 2014 has been much better.
Love you Dad.

Today is the 1 year anniversary of your passing, not a moment goes by that we don't think about you. You were a wonderful man with many fond memories. I look up to you in hard times and I know you are there guiding all of us. Grandma is doing wonderful and is such a strong person. She would not be so strong without your guidance. I love you dearly Grandpa Tippett! May the angels sing on your day today! Lets have some coffee and chat grandpa :)
When I think of a few key people who have helped me in my life, I remember Charlie. He was both the brother I never had and the father I wish that I had. And he was a caring friend for 40 years.
It's hard to believe that Charlie has been gone for a full year.
My best wishes to all the friends and family in handling this one year milestone.

I began working at E & E Insurance in 1966. Within a year I became Mr. Tippett's secretary and worked for him for around 6 years. He was a great boss and a wonderful man! I remember typing some school papers for Steve during that time! He and his wife were always very nice to me. I am sure your family will miss him so much.
I joined E & E in 1968 and had a chance to get to know Mr. Tippett as his secretary, Terry DeCarlo was a friend of mine from high school. One day we took a laughing box into his office and set it off....he laughed so loud and then said...shut the door...and then we set it off again and we all had a good laugh. He was such a nice man and I remember him fondly.
I knew Charlie from 1970 when I first joined Educator & Executive Insurance Companies and continued until 1984 thought the JCPenny Insurance companies. . I remember him as a class act. A man of integrity, sound judgment and on occasion a warm sense of humor. He will be missed but not forgotten.
When Charlie was Executive Vice President of Educator and Executive Insurance, he recruited me to work for him in 1973. The career change was, for me, a major move that made me feel somewhat apprehensive. Charlie immediately became my guide and mentor, and helped me gain the confidence I needed to succeed under him--and later in my other business ventures. I owe much of my success to him
Sorry we were out of town and missed the memorial service. We certainly miss him, such a kind man, wonderful friend and neighbor, and we appreciate the opportunity we had to see him on an almost daily basis. Please know our thoughts and prayers continue to be with the whole family.
Doe se doe, allamand left, head ladies to the center for the teacup something...those were the days, square dancers say...

I will give most of my tribute to Dad at the Memorial Service tomorrow. It is hard to put in a few words the love I have for Dad. He was the most intelligent, kind, gentle and loving father a person could ever have. He never had a negative thing to say about anyone or any thing, he was always upbeat and positive, and was honest in everything he did or said. I will love you always, Dad.
I will forever remember the special bond you and I had Grandpa Tippett. For you were a listener not a talker, just like me. You listened to me and I listened to you. I dream about you often and I know you are in heaven with the angels dancing, singing, and being merry. I will never forget you sweet sweet grandpa. I love you.
