Our thoughts and prayers go out to the family, friends, & co-workers of Charles Black. He was a wonderful person, an excellent teacher, and a good friend. We at United EMS were shocked & saddened by the sudden & unexpected loss of such an amazing individual. Having been involved in EMS for 15+ years has resonated the fact that each life is shorter than you can imagine, and priceless to say the least. I wish that I had spent more time with Charles and stressed to him how much he meant to all of us. He will be truly missed! May he be at peace and watch over, protect, & guide us all.

Having been in EMS to many years to count, it never gets easier to loose one of our own. My heart is heavy and I share your loss. The Black family as well as his EMS family is in my thoughts and prayers. Fly High and watch over us all.

Charles was calm, assured, caring, purposefully amusing and more than a little amazing. He had a knack for saying the right thing in the right way to the right person at exactly the right time. Just being in his presence could lower your stress levels to bearable in a matter of minutes. I'm not sure what we'll do without him.

My sympathy to his friends and family in EMS and at home.
