I had the honor of working along side of Charles for a few years ... he also lived down the road about 1/2 mile from my home.

Charles was a conscientious worker and a dedicated friend. He fought for what was 'the right thing' to do.

He was quiet but wise and always had a kind word for others.

All these years later he STILL made and makes a difference in my life.

I was blessed.

Thank you, kindly for all your beautiful words and memories of our daddy. This has been a hard thing for me, my sister and our children to comprehend. It is helpful to know that we are not the only ones who are feeling the impact of his passing and hope that we can find strength and comfort through everyone's sharing.

I just went outside and there was a double rainbow directly over my house. I like to take that as a sign from my daddy. Not only is it a beautiful vision, but I am sure I would have recieved an hours long lecture about the specific scientific working of the whole thing!

I love you, daddy and will miss your elaborate knowledge of EVERYTHING! :)

Sad to hear about Chuck, what a fun and eclectic guy, I have fond memories of dinners at our place and chatting about various things..

I am so sorry to hear of Chuck's passing ... I hope those left behind know that he was loved and will be remembered by many. He was a good man ... a wise man ... and someone I will always remember with a smile. I was lucky enough to help him get settled in Rochester NY when he moved there and he lived about a half mile down the road from me until I moved to NYCity.

I visited him when I came back to NY ... moved several times since then.

The world is a less loving place with him gone! Colleen (Joyce) Kelly

I'm saddened to hear of Chuck's passing. I always found him to be a sweet and sensitive person...enjoyed talking with him when I stopped in to visit at GLOBAL 360 years back and when we would share a meal at our mutual friend's home (Joyce from old KODAK days). I have often thought of him and his smile.
