Memories from Uncle Gary (dad's younger brother)

Wanted to share the info below from Uncle Gary, dad's younger brother.  Gary is the youngest of all the Maughan kids.   This is in an email from Uncle Gary to Trent.  Great memories, Uncle Gary.  All others, please feel free to add memories, or email Celia at jabugrizz@aol.com, and I will copy them in here. 


I didn't go see your Dad and your Mom didn't encourage us to go see
him.   I have so many great memories of Charles.  He baptized me down in
foxley's pond when I turned 8.   I grew up around motorcycles/ model T's
/ A's and hot rods your Dad collected.  Some went very fast.  There was always an air of excitement when we got to ride with him.  I was in the rumble seat of his Model A that Marion was driving when she ran into the back of Doyle's car on the hill field road.   That was a wreck.  I have
nothing but good memories of your Dad.  He was a great Dad/ husband / brother.  I can't imagine him only weighing 130# and wasting away in body and mind.  Hopefully freedom will come to him soon.  Anyway,

Love,  Gary
