Not sure what to say?

I just learned of Chuck´s passing. He was the epitome of integrity and fairness. One of the most intelligent and perceptive people I met in the business world. My very deepest sympathies to his family.

Karen, Kathy, Scott and the entire Davis family: Unfortunately, news is as slow making it to Wyoming as it has ever been. I just heard of Chuck's passing yesterday evening. Patty and I are very, very saddened that Chuck is no longer with us. To me, he set the standards for honesty, fairness, and quiet integrity. He was - by far - the best boss I ever had. Our sincere condolences to all of you. I will miss him...Phil Washburn

Over decades in his Chicago banking career, Chuck set the standard for credit assessment for many of us young would-be commercial bankers at BMO / Harris. His influence was as positive as it was deep. Requiescat in Pace.

I was very sorry to hear of Chuck's passing. I have very fond memories of him at Harris Bank. I think the description of his credit approach was very accurate. I recall telling a colleague who liked to talk a bit too much that once he says yes or no, that's it, he means it. No reason to debate it further. I can't recall disagreeing with one of his decisions.
