As Chuck's nurses at North Fulton Cardiac Rehab, we are very sad to learn of his passing.  He is greatly missed by us and all his friends in the 12:45 pm class.

I was greatly saddened to hear of Chuck's passing.  My heartfelt condolences to Sandy and the rest of Chuck's family at this time.  Where you have lost a much loved family member, I have a lost a very dear friend and the International Society for Japanese Philately (ISJP) has lost a valuable contributor and stalwart supporter.  The legacy that Chuck has left to the Japanese philatelic community, especially for our non-Japanese speaking members, is too immense to encapsulate in a just a few words.  Suffice to say that his diligent researches and commitment to helping others better understand and enjoy their philatelic pursuits have resulted in countless erudite and authoritative references that will remain for both us and future generations forever.

My sincere condolences to all of Chuck's family. Although I never met up with him I greatly valued our correspondence over the years and the way it developed from 'business' to friendly development of our hobby.  Chuck was a most energetic and able friend & will be much missed by me and in philately generally and I'm sure elsewhere.  Happy memories !

May God bless you and your family in this time of sorrow.

Please accept my deepest condolences on the passing of a respected authority and colleague in the International Society for Japanese Philately. I gained an immeasurable amount of knowledge from working together with Chuck on the articles and publications he authored. May he rest in peace.
