Dan, Charlie and Johnny were quite a pair, true cut=ups. I was at Commonwealth in 1964 for about 18 months as a bookers secretary and shorts booker and somehow was also making trips to red x, but my trips were weekly, for Charlie and a couple of the bookers. I remember Jess well. I worked for Chet Hylton and Phil Blakey

John, It breaks my heart to say, but my sweet Charlie passed away April 9, 2014. To me, he was such a good man in every way, and loved the theatre business.

Sorry I didn’t know about this site sooner. Like everyone else, I’m enjoying the memories. I remember your mom and dad well. I remember Charlie lacing a new screen, I think in Chillicothe, and instead of getting off the ladder and moving it over, your dad lifted both Charlie and ladder and moved him over. So scary to watch. I remember you had a big dog that liked to jump in the bath tub. So many wonderful memories.

I’m pretty sure your mom will remember me, had dinner at your home a few times, many year ago, before Charlie and I were married. Anyway, tell her hello and I will try and check back soon.
