It is with regret that I must inform you that my father passed away last Saturday morning, February 1, 2003. He died quickly, proudly and well with his family gathered around him at home. Those that knew him loved him, and those that loved him will sorely miss him.

We are very proud to have been a part of his final moments and grateful for the example of how to make the final journey with dignity and honor and courage. He has gone to join his beloved wife, Marjorie Englehart Tisdale, to sail a vaster ocean in God’s abiding grace.

The funeral service will have full Naval military honors and will be on Friday, February 7th at 3:00 PM at East Lawn Palms Mortuary, 5801 East Grant Rd., Bldg. M, Tucson, AZ 85712.

Charles and Sandra Tisdale
