—Charles King, RIP
Charles and I were occasionally on different sides during the Liberal Party’s tribal wars. Throughout all of that, Charles was unfailingly decent, and always a gentleman, too.
I was very sad to learn of his passing, as I drove into Ottawa this afternoon. My deepest sympathies to his family and his many friends, on and around the Hill.
I read Susan’s blog, and was a bit astounded…I do know a lot of people in the LPC, but not as many as I should, and somehow I never crossed paths with Charles…which is a testament to just how big a family the LPC is (even when some of us choose to be black sheeps…not meaning anyone in particular 😉 … and I realize I am much the worse for it. My deepest condolences to his friends and family.
