CHARLES H. "CHIP" PEARSON

Although I was aware of Chip's having passed away some years ago, I discovered this page only today. Chip's website was (and fortunately, still continues to be) an amazing source of help and inspiration. I have used it many times in the past, and regularly recommend it to other Excel users.

Chip, thanks for teaching me Excel! I miss your emails...

Wow... hadn't been to the site in a while and just came across this. What a loss. His site provided a great resource to many trying to navigate their way through the forrest called "Excel". My deepest condolences to his family.

I have only just learned that Mr Pearson passed away some years ago. My sincere condolences to his friends and family. Like many of you, I have used his site hundreds if not thousands of times to help me get my arrays in shape, little knowing that this was his gift to me in death. Many thanks, Mr Pearson. You have helped me and innumerable others. Rest in peace.

When I was writing Excel VBA code on a consistent basis, the first thing I would look at when I arrived at my desk would be the Pearson Software Consulting site. Whether I would be maintaining legacy code or writing VB NET or needed to review something about classes and objects(I think ought the idea) or whatever it was, I could always find some outstanding, clear, efficient code that would help make my day a little easier. Multiply that by a few thousand and then you get an idea of how much...

oh man... I just found this webpage. I can't express the sadness I feel right now. This is huge surprise to me. I didnt know Chip personally but I got to know him over 2 decades. He is a wealth of knowledge and immensely talented. He along with others in the community were highly valued and enormously respected. He was valuable, and great asset and resource, and I considered him a dear collogue. It would always brighten my day when I came across his name or site in research or quest...

My sincerest condolences. Chip's website helped me develop my Excel and VBA skills so immensely 15 years ago, that I credit him the most in turning my interest in Excel into a fruitful career that enabled me to buy a house and live a comfortable life. I never met him, but his impact on my life cannot be understated.

i have a tear right now his VBA help was simply brilliant - no - the best :-(
