Very sad news.  I had lunch with Chuck and Peg on one of their trips south 
before they moved. They were traveling on route 81 South close to me.  I had 
just bought my E-M1, and he was very interested in what it was like. He took 
photos with the 14-54 and a 55/1.2.  He finally bought one, and we chatted a 
few times about the infamous menus.  He will be sorely missed.
