<VV> Chuck Armer

[BBRT]

Chuck was a very good friend and I will really, really miss him. He was a 
long-time, huge supporter of CORSA, involved in organizing events, 
supporting many events and participating in concours, displays, autocross, 
and track events.  Chuck's personality was open and friendly, willing to 
discuss anything Corvairs and enjoy others company.  He often jumped in and 
DID rather than sit back and watch. He recently volunteered to organize and 
display a wide variety of years and models of Corvairs at the Walter Mitty 
event where a number of our members participated on track. This was one week 
after the Helen GA show, yet he had 15-20 Corvairs in the Corral at Road 
Atlanta. It was excellent National exposure of our cars and CORSA.

Many of you know we joshed each other often. Chuckster, formed Where's The 
Beef Racing Team (WBRT) in a friendly competition with our BoHunkBros Racing 
team (BBRT). The enclosed picture of Chuck was taken at the motel in 
Cranbery PA at an NECC track event weekend at BeaveRun, PA. The picture, 
taken by Scott Trunkhill, is labeled because he of WBRT was wearing my BBRT 
hat.  I was in the process of making up decals making fun of WAPRT...  Even 
had a one-off T shirt planned.

Chuckster couldn't sleep well at times. Once in a while, I would get an 
email sent at some un-Godly hour during the night that said, "Sleep is over 
rated".  I did the same to him. Funny, we never ended up chatting or 
coordinating during our sleepless nights.

Smitty and I met Chuck (Senior Beef) and Scott (Jr. Beef) in Augusta SC 
recently where we had dinner together. We all loaded a '64 van I bought from 
him and then went out to dinner. I will remember his joviality and 
helpfulness.

Wonderful guy.  Really hurts.
