Both Claude and Chuck took care of most of the outstation equipment for FAL. But also help at the Denver shop every once and awhile. Good mechanic, but a Great Man to know. He will be missed..... -Pat Kern (5/20/08) When I was secretary in the Omaha station, Chuck would be there from time to time to work on ground equipment. He was always a gentleman and a pleasure to have around. My condolences to his family. -Mary Harter (5/30/08)
