My farewell to a good friend

In Response To: Chuck Maddox passed away today... ()

As human beings we are all unique and irreplaceable, but this is especially true with you, Chuck. You were the one and only.
Your hunger for knowledge, incredible and enviable work capacity, but especially your unconditional willingness to help others, made you one of the most irreplaceable people I have ever met.

You have taught us all a lesson with your life example that goes way beyond all the details of all the vintage chronographs or Macs in the world.

I look at your life and I ask God that I may serve others and take advantage of all that I have been given one tenth of what you did. Then, I know I will be all right.

We don�t take any material possessions with us to the grave. We go the same we came, naked. We do however take all the good things we have done for others big or small, and you Chuck, it seems to me like you were helping people all day long. You are taking your endless good deeds with you to heaven. And your legacy is our example.

Only the Good die young!

We will miss you every day.

Proud and honored to be your friend,

Nick Gabarro
