Charles (Charlie) Dawson Smith went home to be with his Lord and Savior on Jan. 17, 2021, after a valiant fight against coronavirus. His wife, Christine, and daughter, Stephanie, were by his side when he passed at the Williamsport Hospital.
Charlie was well-loved by family, friends and his church family. He was always joking around with people and could talk to anyone. Charlie enjoyed kayaking, spending time with his wife doing various home improvement projects and being with his special needs daughter, Amanda. He liked watching westerns on TV and putting together model cars.
His wife, Christine, was the love of his life. They were a couple for 10 years and then got married in 2002 at the historic Warrior Run Church. They celebrated 18 years of marriage in July 2020. Theirs was a love story for 28 years, that their friends admired.
The COVID-19 pandemic may accelerate the closures of rural hospitals that already began the year on the brink. With cases and hospitalization rates expected to continue growing through the winter months, hospitals that remain open in rural communities are under enormous financial pressure.
It’s a struggle particularly felt in the South. Of the 134 rural hospitals to close in the past decade, 50 have been in the Southern states, according to data from the Rural Health Research Program at the University of North Carolina-Chapel Hill. Often, the closures have occurred in communities laden with vulnerable populations that are more susceptible to the novel coronavirus, said Alan Morgan, the chief executive officer for the National Rural Hospital Association.
