Hello Pat, I had the pleasant opportunity to spend countless hours and days with Chuck at the Miami Sales Office of Eastern during the 60’s and 70’s and then in Fort Lauderdale when he worked with Loren Cain, Dennis Shine, Dave Moore and others. I never knew a more pleasant, dedicated individual to share time with and have as a friend and co-worker. Bill Delahanty
