His philosophy of life was simple. Commit 100% of your effort, time, and ability every day to be the best you can be. This held true in business, charitable activities, or just being with friends. Every person Charlie met and associated with during his long life agreed that knowing Charlie made him or her a better person and the world around them a better place. Many associates claimed he was like a father to them. Some legacies are represented by monuments, buildings or statues. Charlie’s legacy lives on in the hearts of all the people he touched. Simply, if you knew Charlie you were a better person for it. Charlie brought good will, good sense, good advice, camaraderie, and his incredible sense of humor everywhere he went. He led by example. He was a collaborator, mentor, teacher, and always a true and loyal friend in good times and bad. And of course there were always the black horn rim glasses and the saddle shoes that went with all his clothing. &KDUOLHZDVERUQ0D\LQ0DQVÀHOG2KLRWR&KDUOHV'H)RUHVW%DQFURIWDQG.DWKU\QH /RXLVH%DQFURIW+HJUDGXDWHGIURP0DQVÀHOG+LJK6FKRROLQ+HLPPHGLDWHO\HQOLVWHG LQWKH8QLWHG6WDWHV$UP\DQGVHUYHGZLWKYDORULQWKH3DFLÀF7KHDWHUHDUQLQJERWKWKH American and Asiatic Theater Ribbon and a Bronze Star.

IF YOU want to see an expression of disbelief on someone’s face, all you have to do is tell somebody who’s not from this area about our water shortage — and any of the salient facts about the shortage will do. Try one of these on your next out-of-town visitor, and they’ll probably have a hard time understanding it, much less taking it seriously: Q If your grandmother leaves you a vacant lot in Carmel, Carmel Val- ley, Pacific Grove or Monterey, you won’t be able to build on it, because the government won’t let you have a water meter. Q If granny wants to live with you, forget about building her a separate unit, unless she’s willing to take one with no bathroom or kitchen. Q Restaurants aren’t allowed to add seats, because more customers mean more water usage. Q Even the hospital almost wasn’t allowed to have water for its new cancer wing. Not only are such restrictions unheard of in the rest of the country, they’d never be tolerated for long if they were. No water? You must be joking. Even in grossly overbuilt communities located in desert environments, there always seems to be water available for new development. And in plac- es like San Jose, where an apartment complex seems to go up every week, water permits are never an issue. That could be because water — being an essential substance for life itself, not to mention for the modern conveniences of having a decent place to live, keeping yourself and your clothes clean, and even having a few plants of your choosing in your own yard — is considered such an obvious “Nice view!” necessity, very few public officials, or even environmentalists, in other parts of the country would have the temerity to recommend the termination of all increasing rents in Carmel, rising internet new water connections and uses.

“The Carmel Pine Cone is an informative, well written newspaper. Lots of hard work goes into this fine publication. Keep moving forward!”

“We love our charming newspaper and the pleasure we get from reading it with our morning coffee every week, hopefully in a cozy cafe in Carmel. Please never stop the paper newspaper.”

“Last year wasn’t great for my family, but I have to let you know that when I turn on the com- puter on Friday morning or the weekend and see the Pine Cone, I smile.”

“Thank you for your weekly emails. Even though I’ve lived in France since 2008, I read the Carmel Pine Cone almost every week as I still have many friends and some family in the area.”

“I love receiving the Carmel Pine Cone through my email. Thanks for the intriguing and inter- “It’s fun to come esting information!” to work when people think “I have been a faithful reader of the Pine Cone (the email version as well as the paper one) ever you’re so good” since we moved to Pebble Beach from Woodside in 2001. You are very informative about what- ever happens here. Thank you!”

“You have a wonderful publication. We read the online edition every week.”

“Tho’ I live 300 miles away and visit the Peninsula only once a year (for the last 35 years), I enjoy your newspaper from the first to the last page every week online and I thank you for that.”

“Keep up the great reporting! I like reading the truth without the spin unlike other local papers.”

“As a longtime reader of your paper, I want to thank you for the great job you and your team do in covering the area. And I especially like (agree with) your editorial page.”

“When in Tucson, I look forward to Friday mornings with great anticipation so I can download the week’s edition of the Pine Cone and read it cover to cover. This helps me feel connected to this very special community. When in our beloved Carmel, each Friday morning I jump in our electric car with our golden retriever, Daisy, by my side and race down to Ocean and Mission to get the newest edition. Daisy insists on carrying it in her mouth the entire way home. We have so much to be proud of in Carmel and the Pine Cone sits near the top of the list.”

“Thanks for the opportunity to read this wonderful little paper. It is much appreciated.”

“We’ve been email subscribers to the Pine Cone for a year now, ever since we bought a house in Carmel (we still live in Minnesota but will be retiring in a few years— can’t wait!) I really enjoy reading about our future home town.”

“I’m not asking that this be published, but I want to offer my thanks to you for the insights, intelligence and objectiv- ity offered in your paper. What a contrast to most publications out there.”

“How refreshing to have direct, truthful, no nonsense editorials. Unfortunately, this style of writing has been lost in our feel good society. Keep at it.”

“I get The Pine Cone every week and enjoy it more than you can know. What a wonderful paper you have. I read every word!”

“I just wanted to let you know how truly outstanding The Pine Cone is. The writing equals, if not exceeds, top-notch national papers. You and your staff should be proud. I know I’ve told you before how great I think The Pine Cone is, but it really is a terrific paper.”

“Thank you for providing balanced and researched reporting and upbeat articles. I hope we have The Pine Cone around for many years to come. If it gets down to it, I would pay for the subscription to keep the paper viable.”

“We poll our ticket-buyers as to where they hear about our concerts. You might be surprised to learn how many of them mention The Pine Cone. Thanks!”

“Thanks for the consistently great job you do with your newspaper. I regularly read several newspapers from around the country and yours has the best editorial integrity — bar none. Keep up the good work!”

“I look forward to The Pine Cone more than you will ever know.” — unsolicited reader comments
