“Tenderness and kindness are not signs of weakness and despair, but manifestations of strength and resolution”.

Haddad-KhalilKhalil “Charlie” Haddad
Passed away peacefully on Tuesday, May 25, 2021 at the age of 79.
Loving father of Christine and Jason.
Cherished  Jiddo of Brayden and Emery.
Caring brother of Michel (Caroline Monsour), Raja (Amira Skaff), Samir (Denise Kingsbury), Leila (Kamal Nahas) and Najwa (Nabil Haddad); predeceased by his brothers Chaouki (Nawal Chakar) and Joseph (Salwa Saidy), sister Jacqueline and nephew Ziade; also by his parents Jurius “Abou Chaouki” and Mariam Haddad.
He will be deeply missed and forever treasured by his many nieces, nephews and friends.
Everyone knew him as “Uncle Charlie” because he treated everyone like family. He was a humble and kind man who never left without giving you a big hug. You could always count on Uncle Charlie to lend a helping hand with anything you needed. You would never catch him without a suit on, he was always dressed to impress no matter the occasion. He was a talented upholsterer, loved playing cards with his brothers and one of the best crossword puzzle solvers any of us would know.
We will miss you forever Sanade.
