Steve, Dolly and families, Chart was such an important part of our lives in West Laramie. He was very good to my Mom and Dad, and putting up with Gary and me hanging around the shop. One of my great memorable experiences was a ride in his speedboat on Jackson Lake. When he hit the gas, I fell out of my seat!. He will be greatly missed.

Chart was a gentleman, in every way. Laramie was richer because he was in our community.

My condolences to Steve, Dolly and family. All of us kids growing up around Chart, at the lake, knew he was a special man. It was always Chart and Barb. May they rest in peace.

Dianna and Steve I am so sad to hear of Chart’s passing. I always thought of him as my “second Dad”. Many good times water skiing and camping and just hanging out at your house and of course snowmobiling. He always recognized me wherever we ran into each other and gave me that big hug. He will be misssed by many.

I’m so sorry to hear of Chart’s passing. I have fond memories of him and my dad shooting archery and fishing together and stopping by his shop on the way to go water skiing when I was a little kid. He was always friendly and had a kind word and a bright smile. Your family are in my prayers.
