Awwww, dammit.
When I was but a pup here, one of my first interactions with the group was
to purchase an Olympus Stylus from Chuck to supplement my standard Stylus
and my 4t and 2n. He even included test prints to prove that it worked fine.
I've enjoyed his comments over the years. It's true - while most of us have
never met in person, this place is a great one for the extended family of
virtual friends.
It does hurt when we lose one.
Enjoy the Big Darkroom In the Sky, Chuck.
