I was saddened to learn of Charlie's passing. Although I hadn't seen him in quite awhile I remember him well from his many years with the AF Reserves in Civil Engineering at both the Chidlaw Building and Peterson AFB. Charlie was always friendly, upbeat and helpful; just a really nice guy. After I moved to Peterson and no long worked with the reservists, he'd still stop by my desk to say hello when he was at Peterson on his reserve days. My sincere condolences to his wife and family at this difficult time. Rest in Peace.
