Our deepest and sincere condolences to Dr. Rita and her daughters on the passing of Dr. Charles. Had been our dentist for over 30 years. He and Dr. Rita were always so happy to see us, especially when I took my Mom. Mom just passed away 2/4/25 after turning 104 last November. Dr. Charles will be greatly missed. He was such a caring person - God give him eternal rest. May our Lord bless and give strength to his family. Cristina Alba Cabrera

Back when my son was still living (1990’s) he had fallen & broken his jaw. Dr. Olono took great care of him and sent him to an orthodontist. My son healed very well - I will always be grateful to Dr. Olono.

Charlie was a wonderful friend to Greg and I. He helped Greg recover from a painful tooth episode while we were visiting in Illinois one time. Such a generous and thoughtful man! We loved him and his family very much. We hope they all receive our sympathies and know they are in our thoughts and prayers. Charlie will be missed so much. Jean and Greg
