August 6, 2024 at 2:31 pmM. Pierre Charron was the kindest, most generous person I have known and I am better for his friendship. He was a true “people person”, his good humour and sincerity won him friends and respect all his life. It was impossible to go anywhere with Pierre and not be greeted by shouts of recognition and smiles. My best of friends, I shall miss you terribly. The world was a better place when you were here.
