Stunned and saddened

I was aware that Charles was ill, but had communicated with him in the past month via email, where he seemed hopeful and reasonably upbeat.

I am shocked to hear of Charles' passing. I always found Charles to be a straight shooter, and great to deal with. The equipment he designed was amazing, and has been a pleasure for me to use. My deepest sympathies to Hitch Hiker co-founder and son Jake.

My condolences to Jake. Charles was a good man.
