I remember Chuck in my mechanical drawing and art classes at Palo Verde.  It was  my surprise and delight to see him enrolled in my class of 1974 at the college of architecture, U of A. (someone I knew from High school)  We survived 5 years of the architecture curriculm.

I will remember him for his easy going and gentle demeanor.  Always took assignments with a can do attitude regardless of the diffuculty.

Great Guy  will be missed.

I’m sad to learn of Chuck’s passing. Lu Wynn and Gibby, I am so sorry. Please convey my respects to the rest of your family.
