I am sorry to hear about Mr. Salmon's passing.  My thoughts are with the whole family....

I'm sorry for your loss, Chuck was a great person whom I worked with at HP in Waltham. He was one of those people that could make you laugh, in any situation, just when you needed it. 

He was a special manager too. His team was young but he taught them how to be the best they could be and I'm sure they learned a lot from him. 

I worked with Chuck, I was the technical support person for HP Medical Trade Shows and we had worked many events together. The best trips were in New Orleans, having our own tour guide, we found the best places to eat and best places for good local music. 

Chuck was a tallent and a friend that I missed when he left us and I know he's looking down on us all with his smile and thinking what a hell of a time he had with us all... 

God bless you all...

Jill, We were so sorry to hear of Chuck's passing. Praying for you and your family, Sandra & Michael Granier

Mrs. Salmon, Jason, Scott, and family.

I was truly saddened to hear of the recent passing of Mr Salmon.  Undoubtedly, his remarkable life had positively impacted all he came in contact with.  I will never forget the New Orleans Saints flag flying proudly from your garage every Sunday......in Merrimack, NH.   Everyone in my family sends their most sincere condolences.  You are all in my prayers.

I am heart broken over reading about Chuck's passing. Chuck was blessed with a lovely family and supportive wife (Jill), for that reason we celebrate the life he enjoyed.

Chuck was one of several men who made a difference in my life. Just months ago, we reconnected, and I shared those sentiments with him. He suggested I come by and visit if I am ever in the Birmingham area, and now I am too late.

Why does Chuck matter to me? He was selfless. He told me, whenever you hire someone, make sure that person is qualified to take your job. When I made club as a rookie sales rep, under the guidance and leadership of Chuck, I told him I couldn't go to Disney as I had 3 young children...

Chuck replied - Aw Lawd! You gotta go, Jill and I will watch your kids and they'll have a good time. We went, we had a great time, and my children fell in love with the Salmons. Today, I told my daughter, my mentor who shaped my career that aligned with the HP Way - Passed Away. She recalled the bubble bath in the big bath tub - and the dog that liked to bark at the vacuum cleaner. 

We named our Birmingham District Sales team, a winning team I might add, the Beavers (a double entendre of sorts). He then informed HP leadership, he was taking the entire sales team and their spouses to Beaver Creek, CO - and what a time it was - it was a time.

If if is OK to say you "loved a boss", then  I loved Chuck Salmon. He made me laugh all the time. He cared for me as though I was his son. He picked at me as though I was his teammate. I think we all felt like a family working for Chuck.

I feel fortunate to have communicated to Chuck in my last writing - how much he meant to me and I thanked him - but I can never thank him enough. 

I am so sorry for the loss of Chuck as his great big extended family will sorely miss his humble, selfless, jovial personality. But, I am grateful the Lord allowed our paths to cross when I was a young man.

I will smile every time I think of Chuck, I hope you all do as well.

Chuck was a great friend and colleague at Hewlett-Packard during the 1980s and 1990s—and  after—and we worked together many times through the years.  He was very supportive and helpful to me, and I'll always remember him for his warm, witty and kind-hearted personality.  This is sad news to hear about Chuck; nevertheless, he made his mark and he left a legacy of professionalism that was truly in the "HP Way."

Jill,
So sorry I did not get by the memorial last night. You and Chuck, by your strength, humor and attitudes, made an incredible impression on me. Your love was strong and I am sure your memories will be also.

You are in my prayers.

Mary Jane and I will always remember Chuck at the great wedding of David and Meaghan in Lucca, Italy.  His dance with Meagan, his gentle smile, his kindnesses to all are what we will always remember about him.  May he rest in peace.

When I think of Chuck (and Jill), I think of what a rock steady couple they were and how I wish that for others.  Chuck's sense of humor was incredible and his way with words equally so.  When us cousins get together in the future, there will certainly be a hole in the room where Chuck would be..but somehow, I think he'll be there anyway.

Chuck was one in million.  I so enjoyed working with him at Hewlett-Packard and smile every time I think of him.  He was special.  My condolences to his family and friends.

I worked with Chuck for years, and I don't think I ever met anyone with a funnier sense of humor. He'll be missed by many.

Chuck was one great guy, always willing to help out. I had the privilege of working with him for many years in HP Medical Products group. People like Chuck made HP the great company it once was.

Jill, Jason, Scott and Family,

Our thoughts and prayers are with you all as we remember Chuck and what he meant to each of us. His smile, support and encouragement made each day better for anyone who came in contact with him.

To know Chuck was a blessing.  I only wish I had met him sooner.  He had such a huge impact on me - from my worklife, to my homelife.  He was an inspiration, even before we witnessed his perseverance through this horrible ALS.  I made a promise to him that I would fulfill my world travel dreams and I'm happy to say that I will take my first big trip in Oct.  I know what he would say about that and how proud he would be of me.  He is much loved and will never be forgotten - he will be celebrated for years to come.  I am comforted that he is no longer in pain but I am selfish enough to wish he was still with us.  You all will be in my thoughts and prayers.  All my love to you.

Jill, Jason, Scott, and Family . . . Chuck was so loved, enjoyed, and appreciated by everyone from the Marriott Shoals in Florence.  He was a mentor to many and an inspiration to us all.  I loved laughing with Chuck.  His laugh was contagious.  Jill, the way you cared for him and loved him over the past year has been a wonderful example of love.  We will miss him, but his love for people and his ability to inspire the best from others lives on.

Jill, Jason and Scott,
Steve and I are sending prayers and love to you all. Chuck was such a great man, and always so much fun to be around.
I know this has been a long journey, but now Chuck is at peace and resting in the arms of the Lord. May God bless and keep you and your family.
Much love 
Rosie and Steve Johnson

Jill, Jason, Scott, and Family,
So sad to hear of Chuck's passing. (I did reply to your email that morning.).  I had him on my mind so much those last two weeks, so I guess God wanted me  to know he was in need of even more prayers. I will always treasure those few years in Slidell while we were beginning our families and adding babies to our broods.. You were both great neighbors and helped to make our first  move away from home less painful!  Too many memories to list, but please know that our prayers will continue. May God give you peace as Chuck has now with HIM in heaven. Love and Prayers, Charlene and Tom Stein.

Dear Jill and family
It was so sad to hear about Chuck's passing on Friday.  This is such a difficult time in life and please know that many share the grief of your loss and will be there for you. Please know you are in my prayers as well.

Jill, Jason and Scott. Chuck was a great manager but a better friend!  We have him to thank for many great memories and a happy 21 year marriage. Our thoughts and prayers are with you during this difficult time. Sending love from Boston. Bill and Susie Vogel

Jill, Scott, and Jason,
Our thoughts and prayers are with you at this difficult time. Chuck will always be "Chico" to all of us from the St. Anthony family. Chico was bright and funny, and a nimble athlete. He will be greatly missed.

Jill and family, 
We are so sad about Chuck.  I sit and remember all of the fond memories of all of the fun times we have had together in the past. Just know that our thoughts and prayers continue to be with you and your family.  
Love, Carol and Jimmy

A dear friend..."Thanks for the memories".  HP Nashville Medical Sales was an experience that I will never forget-thanks to your sense of humor and incredible leadership!   
Janice Saxton Westenhaver, Boise, Idaho

Jill,

Janet sent Jeanne and me an e-mail about Chuck Friday morning.  You and Chuck have been in our thoughts and prayers over the past months as we've dealt with our situations.  I am so sorry for your loss and can honestly say I know exactly what you're going through having just done the same.  I'm here if there's anything I can do.     Candi
