Charles Carmen Grasso, Jr. - Online Memorial Website

Today we're remembering you; each in our own special way. The bond we share as police officers is lasting and forever. I honor, respect, admire and remember you; not just on anniversaries but always. I am forever grateful for the quiet, intimate moments we shared exchanging "war stories" over coffee and about life. We're all indebted to you for helping us to be stronger and face new challenges everyday. Life is difficult at times and your strength and wisdom guides us. Rest well Charlie, we will all be together again someday. "POST PHOEBUS NUBILA" (HPD 495 / HPD 1742)

Well today I am thinking of Father's Days in the past. As a child making  gifts you seemed to love and never knew what they were. To you grandkids doing the same, and the smiles it brought to your face. I was blessed to spend your ast father's day with you so you could meet Garrett, he is so much like you dad. Thank you for all the wonderful memories, morals and guidance you gave all of us, they live on in many generations.

love ya and butterfly kisses

I love you daddy Happy Bithday to you.

It is Father's  Day and I am remembering the silly cards we made and the gifts that made you smile. Now no more gifts or smiles , but the memories you have given me. The stories that I share with my grandchildren about what a great man you were yo all of us.  You were my dad, friend , someone who would guide me, and my hero. Thank you for showing me what a man can be, and how true love is everything and just not in a book or movie. Love you daddy and Butterfly kisses alway

Dad remembering the trips with the kids to Florida and all the new things that you opened their eyes to. The way you were always there for  Char, Bill and John along the way always letting each one know how special they were to you from sports, music and dance  lessons.  You and mom were another set of parents to them. They would not be the adults they are today without the 2 of you thank you daddy
