My thoughts and prayer are with your family. Charles was a friend and co-worker at Pep boys we saw each other everyday for over a year, so I’m sad and will miss him greatly.

My deepest condolences to the Bushong family. Wishing to send a comforting hope for the future based on the words said by Job in Job 14:15 – “You will call, and I will answer you. You will long for the work of your hands.” May the hope of once again seeing our loved give you the strength that you need during this difficult time.

Bushong Family:
You have my sympathy!
I met Charles at work, where he made me aware of the things of importance to him: His family, Katelyn and gaming.
He was definitely an awesome guy & his great voice will be missed via the intercom system, each morning at work!
