Charles Rocheville's Page

I have been away for years, but Riley and I are still bouncing  around.  Or at least Riley.  Hard to believe he is 6 1/2 years old now. It will take me some time, but will try and update my page with current info and pictures.  Had an email change while back, so corrected that.  Was able to snag Joanne last night, but took me awhile not used to the newer mobile format and all..  Well, any of my ol' pen-pals still around give my a holler.
