Mr. Page also loved gardening flowers, vegetables and berries. He could often be found tending to the peach and apple orchard that graced his property. Mr. Page loved his land and his farm, but he loved God first, and he found great comfort is studying and reading from the scriptures. He began each day by listening to the Jackson Drive church radio program, and it was he who always opened each family gathering with prayer. Mr. Page's family was a true blessing, source of pride and constant joy and comfort to him. Charles Page, Sr. was a pillar of the community of Tanner and Limestone County. He was a true meek, Southern gentleman, standing when a lady entered a room, offering his chair and removing his hat to say, "How do you do?". He and his wife graciously opened their doors to visitors and neighbors. A friend never left their home empty-handed. Anyone having the pleasure of meeting Charles "Mr. Charlie" Page can say they felt loved and inspired by his presence, and awed by his kind, gentle spirit.
