First off, I would like to apologize for not being able to attend the wake or funeral, due to prior engagements. So, in this message, let me send my condolances and sympathy to the entire family of Mr. Charnot.



I remember the first time I met him. I was at one of Anthony's PPV parties, and Mr. Charnot started to talk to me like he had known me for years. Since then, I have had lots of respect for him, as well as many funny conversations.



I will always remember Mr. Charnot as a great man, who was always generous and friendly to all, and someone who could always make you laugh.



May he R. I. P.

I was deeply saddened by my cousins' death. I spent many of my growing up time with the Charnot family. They were my extended family since both of my parents had passed away. Larry was like an older brother to me as he was to Dave

My sincere condolences to the family
