CHARLES DAVIS GOLSON, Sr., 


85, of Sterling, Virginia died peacefully on his birthday, Tuesday, May 1st 
2012, in Leesburg, VA, with his wife and children at his side.

He was born May 1st 1927 in West Monroe, LA to the late Almer Davis and Mattie 
Ethel Wilder Golson.

Mr. Golson is survived by his beloved wife of 32 years, Irene Brohm Golson of 
SterlingVA; a son: Charles Davis Golson, Jr, his wife Connie, and their 
children, Charles D. Golson, III, Cydnie Marie Golson, Conor Nolan Golson, all 
of Austin, TX; a daughter: Elizabeth Golson Combs of Sterling, VA, and her 
daughter, Carleigh Elizabeth Combs; a brother: Almer "Glenn" Golson, his wife 
Janet, of Cadeville, LA; a sister: Nancy Marie Aswell of West Monroe, LA; four 
step children: Stuart W. Brohm, Jr. of Sterling, VA; Frances B. Monroe of Lake 
Hills, TX; Catherine B. James of New Port Richey, FL; Christine B. Williams of 
Mary Esther, FL; and a host of other nieces, nephews, friends and neighbors. A 
childhood sibling, Carol Virginia Golson, predeceased him. 

"Charlie" graduated from Louisiana Tech University in 1950 with a degree in 
electrical engineering. Aside from his first job after finishing college with 
General Electric in Connecticut, Charlie worked his entire career for 
Schlumberger, Limited, in the oilfields of South Louisiana.

A quiet Southern gentleman, he enjoyed twisting his signature handlebar 
mustache, making a serious face with eyebrows furrowed, while thinking of 
something witty to say. He lived his retirement years at his own pace and was 
never, ever in a hurry. Like his father, he enjoyed the outdoors: fishing with 
a cane pole, feeding the birds, squirrels, deer, raccoons, and the occasional 
skunk. He especially enjoyed watching and reading about the stock market - 
Barron's and CNBC will no doubt miss their most loyal fan. 

Friends may call on Monday May 7th 2012 from 5:00 PM until 7:00 PM at the 
Mulhearn Funeral Home, West Monroe.

Services will follow at the funeral home on Tuesday May 8th at 10:00 AM. 
Interment will be in Hasley Cemetery, West Monroe, LA, where the Golson family 
will be together once again. Peace in the valley...
