I first met Charlie "Lite" when I was CD as the 1997 Region 9 no
contest at Owl Canyon. The contest manager presented me with this 'character' to run the gate. Over the course of four straight rain days, I got to know Charlie pretty well. Lots of story telling, some beer, and those days, he still played the guitar and sang. Like Paul Remde, over the years I shared hotel rooms with Charlie, talked on the phone periodically, and visited when possible. You just couldn't help but admire the tenacity of the man. He gave so much to soaring. I miss him already. That's one thing I like about the SSA. You get to know such fine people. My sympathies to Micki and family. Frank Whiteley |
