These remembrances from our classmates:

Monica Dean Steckel
I was so sad to learn of Charlie Yeager's death - he was always one of my heroes at Bolton (and object of a long-held and very private "crush"). He was so sweet, so friendly and kind, so cute, so smart, and so civic-minded.

Ann Pierson Patten
Charlie Yeager was one of my favorites. His cute wit, twinkle in his eye and quick comments caught my attention. In the 8th grade we ran against each other for President of the Student Body at Alexandria Junior High School. I actually ran against 4 boys, Greg Walker and Brad Lowther included. Charlie was quite confident that he would win and he reminded me that it was only my first year in public schools! Oh well, I won! The loss hit him hard but I always admired his ability to congratulate me and ask me to the end-of-year dance. I did go with him and had lots of fun!

Steve Irving
I was sorry to hear about Charlie Yeager. He worked in the Attorney General's office for part of the time while I was counsel to the Inspector General and I ran into him a couple of times.

Edna Jo Layton Sprinkle
It is so sad to hear about Charlie Yeager's death. This certainly makes me stop and think about how precious each day is to us.

Elaine Carr
THANK YOU SO MUCH for this information. What an incredible life he led and I never knew it! Am moved that they used his BHS picture, too... again, thank you.
