Mary, may I add my condolences. Chuck trained me at ComEd years ago at Tech Center and I was very, very sad to read about his passing in the Exelon news. I looked up to Chuck for his attention to detail, knowledge and enjoyed his company many a night doing sound measurements. I will keep him in my thoughts and prayers.

Aloha,
So sorry to hear about Chuck. We remember his love of sailing, and enjoyed taking him out on Lake Michigan. Although he never made it out to Hawaii for a warm weather sail, we always thought about him.

Mary Kay, we haven't corresponded in a while and this news was certainly not the way to do so. My true condolences on Chuck's death. I know how close you two were and realize his loss will be difficult for you to overcome. You will be in my thoughts and prayers.
