It is with very deep sadness we make this post of the passing of our dear friend, Charlie Holcomb today July 6, 2011 with his beloved wife Mary at his side.
Mary, all of us here at GliderCENTRAL continue to hold you in our arms during this very difficult time.
Charlie is with all those babies he loved and cared for now.
We love you.
Charlie was hospitalized on June 21, 2011 which you can read about here.

Mary, you know you are in my heart as is Charlie. He put up a courageous fight and you were there with him, by his side all the way to the end. It was an honor to know him, and to have him share his wisdom with everyone in the glider community. He will never ever be forgotten, but will remain in our hearts and our memories forever.... I love you both......

This hurts my heart so very much. Charlie was very special and so very loved. Mary too.
Mary, my thoughts and prayers are with you constantly. I know you need some time before phone calls or visits and just know that I LOVE you so very much. I will be on the road at a moments notice if there is anything I can do to help you. And I mean ANYTHING.
I am so very sorry.

Mary, I know there are no words that will help you right now. Just know that you have many arms waiting to give you hugs and many hearts crying with yours. My deepest sympathies go out to you. We will miss you so much Charlie.

Does anyone have Mary's address where we could send her a sympathy card? I was just thinking it might make her feel good to get bombarded with cards from all her gc family.

Mary, My most sincerest and deepest condolences.
Charlie will always be remembered, loved, and deeply missed by so many.
I pray that through this difficult time, you will feel the love, support, and prayers. We are all here for you.
As many others, if there's anything that I can do to help please don't hesitate to call. I'm here for you too.
Thank you, Charlie for all the wisdom, and the guidance you've given for so many of us. I personally would not have made it through without your help when I first became a glider owner. I will always be forever grateful.
Rest in Peace, and Love those baby's all over again.

I agree with Connie! Let's do cards! Or each of us could raise a "Charlie Fund" in memory of Charlie or everyone pitch in on a basket of stuff from vendors and such and help Mary with the glider kids as well as sending the cards! I like that idea actually. I am so sorry for your loss Mary. Although I hadn't met him, I have heard great things and you have to always remember how he was not how he was at the end. I know it has to be hard to go through and I am so sorry you are but rejoice that you had him for the time you did and cry the rest of the way through the pain. It will help and over time things will get better. If you need anything then let me know. I will be praying for you and yours.

Mary, I am sorry Charlie was taken from you. He was a great man, and he is up there playing with all the gliders who have left us... It makes it a little easier knowing Tales and Guiness now have a wonderful buddy up there to play with. May your heart ease with time, and always remember the good times you had...

My heart, too, is broken. All of us who have had the pleasure of meeting Charlie are left with a loss in our hearts. Mary, you are more loved than you can know. It is because we love you so much that we hurt so much for and with you. I am here for you in any way you need. My prayers will continue to go up for you. I'm just so sorry for your loss.

I wish all you newer members truly knew how much the glider community lost today when Charlie was called home. So much knowledge.
Charlie, thank you for all you have taught me. I hope to honor that by continuing to pass on that knowledge with those that need it.

Many hugs and prayers going out to Mary and her family. At least we know he's been reunited with all of our gliders that have crossed the rainbow bridge and they'll be WELL taken care of....God Bless

I am so sorry for your loss, Mary. I have only been in the community for 4 years, but have consistently heard nothing but wonderful things about you and Charlie. I know that you both have been true angels for all gliders and the humans who love them, alike. My heart absolutely aches to hear this news. My love and prayers are with you and your family.

Oh Mary I only got to talk to you personally on the phone a couple of times and never had the pleasure to get to know Charlie but I was praying for y'all the whole time and I'm so glad you were by his side to the very end. He'll take care of all the babies over the Rainbow Bridge and await for you to join him some day. Yes please share Mary's mailing address as I would like to send her a card as well as some other gifts.

Mary, I was very saddened to hear that Charlie has been called Home...and while I know NONE of us can take his place in your world, please know that we all share in your loss because you have first touched so many of us. We know you probably need some time to mourn and adjust, but know that when you're ready we will be here...individually and collectively...to do whatever we can to say THANK YOU for being you! God bless you and keep you safe in His loving arms, may the angels wrap their wings around you so that you know how much you are cared for.

I don't know you guys personally.... but I still want to send out my love. I lost my best friend/favorite person on this planet very suddenly 8 months ago who, and then another very close friend a couple months back from a sports accident who was only 20 years old. These events have crushed my heart more than I could have ever imagined so I have the deepest sympathy for what you must be going through right now. I'm so sorry to hear of this. Life is so fragile and surely not always fair I'm glad you were able to say goodbye- I would've given anything to be able to say goodbye. I hope it's comforting knowing that he was surrounded by those that loved him and he knew it- that's beautiful. I'm so sorry..... and I wish these words could help. Try to stay strong- I'm sure he wouldn't want to see you sad. Much love, JesSica

Oh, Miss Mary, How sad it is to read that Charlie has gone to heaven. You know.... God must have needed Charlie as his Guardian Angel for all of those little suggies running around up stairs. My goodness.... Charlie will really be busy now. The Glider Community has learned so much about Sugar Glider Health and Rescues from Charlie and Mary. Charlie will deeply be missed by all. You take care Miss Mary. In time.... the sun will shine and dry your tears. Charlie would want it that way. Love Ya, Judie Hausmann

Mary, many I will continue to pray for you. You have been such a blessing to so many and encouragement to people that have never had the honor to meet you in person. You and Charlie have so many jewels in your crowns, and know that right now Charlie is sitting with the Father. I pray you feel comfort and peace.

i am so sorry to Mary and family many tears and prayers are being sent. At a loss of words this is so incredibly sad to lose such a great person that not only had an amazing family but gave all his love to his pets as well as helping so many when he was here. Again my thoughts and prayers are with Mary and her family. Words can not express how i feel about the loss of such an amazing man. rest in peace Charlie, you lived, loved and will always be thought about and cared for and remembered for all that you did. to Mary during this incredibly difficult time

Mary, my heart and prayers go out to you. Back when I first got my first gliders, Charlie spoke to me about Timmy as he was quite the 'flosser' and I was concerned he would start to SM. He helped me through that time. You both have helped me on so many occasions. Yes, he is surrounded by many little loved furries who now have someone to take care of them. RIP sweet Charlie....you have touched so many with your kindness, love and knowledge. Mary, I know I am far away, but if I can ever do anything, please do not hesitate to let me know.

Our tragic loss is heaven's gain.
Mary, you and your family are in my thoughts and prayers. Although we've never met, I certainly know how much we've all lost. I pray you find the strength to get through the coming hours. You just take one minute at a time.
Massive hugs and love to you and your family, Mary.
