Farewell to OSOK
I was not sure where to post this, OSOK was a 22 benchrest shooter so I put it here.
As I write this I have tears in my heart, my best friend and brother in life has past away today 11/21/23. I talked to his wife this morning and she thought the time was very close and a few hours later she called to tell me of his passing. He lost his long fight with cancer, and is at rest now. For all of you that knew Charlie he was a determined man. He would never do things half way, it was full steam ahead or nothing. He was a great man and a great friend and had so much knowledge, I’ll miss his voice calling and all the projects we did together. We would talk for hours about benchrest 22's. He has been on this forum for awhile and many posts. He always had something to say, some good some bad but that was Charlie. I’m keeping this short, it is all to fresh in me right now and I need time.
This is for you Charlie you will never be forgotten!!!! Harry

Awful news. I have a lot of respect for Charlie.

Very sad to hear. I read with great interest his threads on trying to squeeze every bit of accuracy he got get out of his rig. He will be missed. My condolences to you and his family.

I didn't know Charlie, I read his posts, but after reading your account of how he approached things, we have in common that thread of staying at something until either success is reached, or until I have to back up and cuss some more and then eventually success will be mine, and I also would rather slap a momma bear than declare defeat. That kind of drive to accomplishment earns a ton of respect in this camp. We would probably have gotten along well. Condolences to his family and friends.

That really is disappointing news. I do remember him posting that he was going to be away from the forum due to the cancer he had, and just in the last week or two I had wondered how he was getting on with that. Obviously, not well enough.
Not only did I enjoy his posts, but he gave good reasoned descriptions, answers and corrections.
Hopefully, he inspired more to do the same - a propagation of one's good works is a great reward.

So sad to hear. I had some very positive interactions with him a few years back when I was a bit more active here on the CB forum. My deepest condolences to his family and friends.

Very sorry to hear of his passing. I enjoyed reading his posts.
Sincerest condolences to all who knew him and called him friend.

I read a lot of his posts. Long running posts working on accuracy projects. I am sorry to hear this. He was very creative with the things he built to test his ideas and freely shared with text and pictures. I think he said he was an electrician, retired. Damn cancer.

When friends depart for the other shore it leaves a hole. My condolences.

Rest in peace, and may the Lord comfort the family.
