I worked with Chuck at Ampex for almost 20 years. He was a good man who treated others with respect and he lived his faith. My condolences to his family.

I didn't know him as "Chuck," but I did quietly call him, "Dad." I pray for Mrs. Matlock, Cindy and Jef (with one "f"). I will never forget your kindness to me, and trying to get up Flintridge hill in the snow. I still love you all.
