Charles Wilfred Tinker Ii

Charles Wilfred "Charlie Boy" Tinker II Age 62 Years of #04 Rowena Drive, 
Claridge Dale Gardens Nassau, New Providence, The Bahamas, completed this 
walk of life at the Princess Margaret Hospital on Tuesday, March 27, 2007.

Born at High Rock South Andros, Bahamas on Sunday, December 17, 1944 
to the proud parents of Mr. Charles I and Mrs. Mildred Andrews-Tinker. 

Charles attended the Long Bay Cays All Age School, and later migrated to 
New Providence in 1966, where he completed his studies at Aquinas College.

Upon completion of his academic studies, Charles sought gainful employment. 
His first working experience was as a chef for many years, on board the SS Bahama 
Star a cruise ship that sailed between Nassau and Miami. His fine culinary skills 
later led him to Holiday Inn Hotel, where he served with distinction. 
Charles later joined his father in the family business, C & T Restaurant and Bar 
until the time of his demise.

One who loved the finer things of life, Charles couldn't help but fall to his knees in 
complete surrender, when his big brown eyes were fixed steadfastly upon the 
beautiful Arabella Wilson. With much fortitude, he followed her all the way to 
Tennessee in an effort to demonstrate his love and devotion to her.

Charles and Arabella were joined in holy matrimony. Their union was blessed with 
four outstanding children, Dwight, Robert, Adrian and Charis, all of whom are 
making significant contributions to their country.
