We will always have fond memories! Mary and Gordon MacDowell

I just now learned of Charlie's passing; sorry I did not find out earlier and be able to have some input. He and I were coworkers at Dow, though he was much my senior member. I was the " newbie" product manager for the primary product Charlie sold to key customers in the later years of his career. I had the honor of traveling with him on his last week with Dow Chemical.

Charlie brought laughter and light wherever he went. What a joy to have known him!

When I worked for the Kent State police Department I would lunch at the orchard and visit with Charlie, my grandmother took me to the original orchard back in the 50s.I would swap Lake Erie Perch for Charlie's apples.

Offering our deepest sympathies during this time.
