Chuck was a dear friend. He taught me temperature control when I was an apprentice 50 years ago. Then later we reacquainted when I went to work for Johnson Controls in 1983. He was one of the kindest men I ever met. May you rest in peace my dear friend. I look forward to seeing you when I get there.
