Dear Charles,

 

I am sitting here in tears at your awful post.  I feel like I knew you and Judy through the many years of your adventurous posts.  I am sure Judy would have wanted no better ending than to be on a cruise.

I am so very sorry for your loss.  Heartbreaking, indeed.

[hillslife]

Charles... I am in shock... just heard about Judy .    Unbelievable.   You guys were so adventurous and travelled extensively, what a wake up call for us all.😟

 

Judy was such a sweet, low key lady, always in her matching safari outfit and hats.. up for anything... so sorry to hear this very sad news.   We remember you both so fondly from the 60 day Circle Cruise and the amazing adventures we shared.

 

Please accept our sympathy and sincere condolences... this will be a very difficult time, but know you both made such an impact on so many in the cruising world😢.   Our lives will not be the same for knowing you both 😕

 

Hugs 💕

We've never met, Charles, but I feel as if I got to know you and Judy from reading your wonderful posts. I looked forward to each adventure as if it were my own. My heart aches for your loss and am praying for you during this difficult time. 

 

[friend of Eeyore]

I don't know you, and have not met you, but as a fellow lover of travel, i pass on my deepest sympathies.

[Kenswing]

I am so sorry for your loss.  I can not even imagine what you're going through right now.  May you find comfort and peace within all the great memories and experiences the two of you were able to share together.

Charles, I am so very sorry to your loss. I am also sorry that you will not be accompanied by family and dear friends on the way home. I’m sure they are all with you in spirit until they can be with you in person. 

 

I hope you do return to Cruise Critic at some point in time if only to read the comments here. So many of us felt we “knew” you; so many of us have benefited from your knowledge and organization and love of cruising and willingness to share that love. We all ache for you. 

 

Thank you for your wonderful words of wisdom in the midst of your grief. I think many of us are taking them to heart and acting on them today, thanks to you and Judy.

Charles, please accept my deepest condolences for your loss. Your words are very moving and make me think of my dear wife who I would dread to lose. Like you we are trying to do as many cruises as possible as you never know how short life is. We will think of you when we set sail on 10th March for 48 nights on Sapphire Princess for our 40th cruise.

Scott and I are shocked and deeply saddened to hear about what has happened.  Our thoughts are with you during this unimaginable time of grief.  We were so fortunate to share the Alaska cruise on Island Princess with you back in 2006, and although our paths have not crossed since, I've enjoyed following your numerous live from threads over the years.  May those precious memories with Judy exploring the world give you some comfort in the days ahead.
