    Our condolences to the family of Charlie and and I also want to remind everyone what a great competitor he was. During the years that Charlie was competing he was one of Ohio's finest and if he attended a shoot he was always someone who was going to be tough to beat and I believe that he should be considered for our Ohio HOF.

    He and his friend Jack (I believe) shot a lot at the Adams Co. G C and the Airport G C. Tough, tough competitors.

    There was a Video of Charlie's life from a child to his last days, Video of his very Large ATA Trophies from the Grand American, Ohio State Shoots, and the Southern Grand, and West Virginia and Virginia State shoots. I had recommended his induction into the Ohio State Hall of Fame at least 3 times, I was told he was on the list, It would have been nice if it happened while he was still alive. There was a very large attendance to his funeral by friends, family, and Trapshooters to pay their last respects. Thanks to all who attended. May God Bless his wife Carol Pidcock.
