The Passing Of Glen St.Charles

Blackhawk · September 20, 2010, 06:04:00 PM

I feel fortunate to have lived only a few miles from Glenn and his Northwest Archery store. Stopping by to chat or trade bows or shop was very special. Warberg was right on about Glenn and the entire St. Charles family.

We archers have so many things for which we can thank Glenn.

One of my all time favorite true ambassadors of bowhunting, and the last of his kind. He lived a full life, but still so sad to hear of his passing.

He will be greatly missed, but never forgotten.

My condolences to the family.

I will miss knowing he is around still trying to make a difference. Now more than ever we must try to carry on what was started and championed by Glenn.
I think I will reread his book. Make a special arrow and send it out in memory of him.

Condolences to the St Charles family.

Ditto what Ron said. He mentioned my Dad in his book "Billets To Bows" in 1996. Unfortunately my Dad passed in 1995 so he never knew about it. Glenn sent a signed copy of the book to my Mom with this inscription. "Sterling help keep the Tradition alive, Mozelle (my Mother) - For that we will be forever grateful. Glenn St Charles"

Point is, he didn't have to do that. May God bless his soul and his family...Van

Sad to hear this news, and Amen to what Ron said.

He gets around just fine now.

A nice visit with those he has not seen in a while, and straight to the trappers cabin, perhaps?

I feel privileged to have met Glen. He was a very humble man considering all his accomplishments.

We all owe him our gratitude for everything he did for bowhunting.

Godspeed. I hope you and Fred have a grand time recounting adventures past.

Got to spend an evening with him at Denton Hill in his cabin just listening to stories from the past. I wish I'd had a tape recorder with me. One of the Most Memorable evenings I've had in traditional archery. Rest in peace Glen...Doc
