Charlie Estberg

"In April 2020, the world lost one of the good ones. No, one of THE BEST ones. We had the privilege of knowing Charlie Estberg. For the last 2 months of his life, Charlie had been working as an outreach associate for the DCT Foundation. Providing Narcan, hygiene kits and peer support to those in need around Baltimore County.

Charlie had what I call "The Chi". He had IT, someone you just couldn't help but enjoy being around. He was brilliant, that rare breed who is both analytically and emotionally intelligent. He was kind and compassionate. He was very talented and played multiple instruments, music was his life. His energy lit up a room. There was no one he wouldn't help. He was funny with a somewhat dark sense of humor. He was articulate with excellent public speaking skills.

His first testimony in front of the Senate and you would have thought he was a professional lobbyist. He knew the street and could lift people up no matter how poor their circumstances. He LOVED harm reduction, armed with a trunk full of Narcan, snacks and hygiene kits, he spoke to everyone he saw who looked like they could use some help or just a kind word. In the last 2 months of doing street outreach, it looked like he finally found his niche. He was hungry for knowledge, reading anything I sent him and always wanting more. Recently he learned about ACES and epigenetics and he downloaded several books on the subject. He was one of a kind. We will honor you, we will remember you, we will not give up. We love your Charlie. Cool runnings
