I will miss him. He helped me out tremendously before the publication of anything on the origins and genesis of the Parker 28 gauge. Without him I couldn't have made sense out of much of any of it, let alone wrote about it. Thanks, Charlie!

Condolences to his family. A true Southern gentleman of the highest order. Charlie and I had many wonderful conversations. I miss him already..... Gods Speed Charlie...

Charlie was a great help to me in research topics and was more than willing to share valuable information with me when needed. He was a true gentleman and I was happy to have known him for the time that i did.

Just saw the post about Charlies passing, I will miss him and the Parker community will too! He was a true gentleman, and of stellar character, men like Charlie do not come along very often. I wish his family best during this difficult time, RIP Gary

We all have lost a "Best" and "Dearest" friend in Charlie.

Heartfelt condolences to all who will miss him.
