Charles Thomas Bell, age 53, passed away September 3, 2001, in Richland.
For several years Charlie resided in Alameda, California, although he always called Richland his home.

His final days were spent in the home of his very close friends where he was showered with immense love, compassion and lots of prayers.
Charlie was a professional in the Concrete Industry and a phenomenal cook, but his true desires were fishing, the outdoors and spending time with cherished friends. Charlie, you will be missed for so many reasons, but mostly for your carefree ways, your generosity, and your ability to “catch the big one”.
Thank you for being a wonderful part of our lives and for allowing us to be part of yours.
Charlie is preceded in death by his mother and father and survived by two brothers, one sister and many friends he considered “family”.
