Knew Chuck since I was a teenager and was a big fan of his bands in later years. He was to-the-point, easy to get along with and had a spontaneous humor that always got a laugh out of me.
He was an important persona in the Ontario heavy metal scene and a charismatic showman live. I ran into last December while I was on the street and he gave me some money once we caught up and got each other up to date. My last memory of him made me laugh: Him shaking his head at Burger King regarding the service and upset customers, grinning, rolling his eyes and saying "Brutal..." in his deep gravel voice.
He'll be missed. Best wishes to friends and family.
