Charles Alvin Critchelow, infant son of Bradley and Shannon Critchelow was born in Cincinnati, Ohio on June 6, 2025. He passed away 20 days later on June 26, 2025. In the short period of time he spent on this earth, a lifetime of love was showered on him. Even though he endured several health issues, he brought such joy to his family and those who cared for him. To quote a friend, "to be so little, but loved so big" – that is Charlie. He is now at peace, with Jesus, and playing with his sister Sydney who preceded him in death.
Charlie is survived by his parents Bradley and Shannon Critchelow of Westview, KY
Siblings: Bryce Goatley of Radcliff, KY; Austin Harris of Harned, KY, Catherine and William Critchelow of Westview, KY
Grandparents: Bobby Joe and Debbie Critchelow of McDaniels, KY and Earl and Sherry Norton of Harned, KY
Several aunts, uncles, cousins and their families.
