A loving tribute to my husband. Part of him lives on in the spirit of all his fellow climbers. May he rest well and be at peace in the place he loved best. Cheers. Charlie, you are love much, and missed even more. [youtube=[Click to View YouTube Video]]

Thanks,
Btw, Michelle and Trevor are great people. I drove to Redding on my way to Yosemite to pick Ian's ashes and the minute I walked into their house, it was like we had known each other for 20 years. They told me stories of Ian and we laughed and laughed. We didn't cry, but wasn't far below the surface.
