OH WOW.

SO Sad to hear the news. My condolences to his friends and family.

Chuck was a great guy. He helped me get started in the figure business 25 years ago when he connected me with some sculptors for my very first figure. I saw him and shared time with him at every show. He will be missed.

I'm sad to hear that Chuck has passed. But I'm glad that he made it to our show one more time. Just walking into the hall Friday morning to get set up seemed to rejuvenate him. He was in his element, even if for one last time.

Rest in peace, Chuck!

Truly sad news, I always enjoyed Chucks company when he attended Euro militaire. Will be sorely missed. RIP Chuck.

Sad news indeed. A great guy and such a laugh. I sold stuff at euro for him for many a year. His favorite saying was always ...time for a smoke and a coke. In later years it was always diet coke.

Missed him for while now and knew of his illness. In his last message he said he checked out january. My condolences to his family

Terrible news. I first read this on FB. RIP Chuck.
One has to wonder what the fate of The Red Lancer will be now as well.
