The server at the email link given keeps rejecting my email. I am posting my email here:
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

I was saddened to read of the passing of Mr. Glenn St. Charles. It is a day that I have known to be inevitable, but I hate change.
It is the passing not only of a man, but of an era. I first shot a bow in 1964, and grew up reading of the accomplishments of Fred Bear and Mr. St Charles.

I was encouraged to call him, when I purchased a copy of  "Bows on the Little Delta", but am somewhat shy and retiring in the face of such a personage, and regretfully, never did.

Thankfully, I am sure that this great man never had any doubts that he had made giant steps in making the paths of archers everywhere a bit easier to follow. There is honor in the path of the archer, that he helped to illuminate, and inspire us to achieve.
He did not need me to tell him that.

What makes me glad today, is that as he passed, I was shooting 3D with a young man and his daughter. I lent him my Bitz, after setting it up for his arrow shafts, gave the young girl encouragement and pride in her shooting, had a grand time. When we got back out of the woods, I mentored another young man who wants very badly to shoot, and I gave his father good information on getting started and links to more information, measuring his son's draw length and allowing him to shoot my two longbows and arrows.

I feel that this would have made my mentors smile, should they take a backward glance. The era ends, and it also lives on.
I pray for strength for the family, in their sorrow, and solace in that the joyous accomplishments of the man, and the inspiration that they instill in those following, will live for as long as a bow bends to launch an arrow, or a human heart aspires to a mountaintop.

Blessings and peace,
Kathryn M. Collister

I am hoping that, should I not be able to find a viable email link, that this could be read by one of the St. Charles family, and it be understood that my heartfelt respect and admiration are included.
