Charles Kimmel

I just received the sad news of Chuck's passing. When he was NATA President, I was on the WFATT executive and chair of the CATA International Relations Committee. Time spent with Chuck was always enjoyable. He always seemed to have time to chat, share information, and offer his advice and assistance. I particularly recall the time we spent in Japan at a WFATT conference. He was such a positive role model and good example for all of us in our profession, especially in the international arena....

Chuck was always so positive, happy, and kind. I loved seeing the two of you walk into the school to visit. He was one of the kindest people I ever knew. Patty, I know that you will miss him dearly. If you need a friend to talk with you know where I am. Love you.

Chuck Kimmel was a wonderful and caring human being. He was mine and John´s friend along with his wife Patty. He loved and enjoyed life fully. He was such a positive person to be around. He and Patty went out of their way to help me while I temporarily lived in a basically empty house for a few weeks until it sold. They made sure I was invited to their home to share a meal each week. They were my lifeline. May God continue to bless Patty and all of Chucks family at this difficult time. Thank...
