Fidelco Guide Dog Foundation: It is with profound sadness that we announce the passing of Charlie Kaman; who co-founded Fidelco along with Robbie Kaman, his wife.

"Charlie was a visionary in everything he did in his life," said Eliot D. Russman, CEO and Executive Director of the Fidelco Guide Dog Foundation, Inc. "More than 1,300 men and women who are blind have been given newfound independence because of their partnership with a Fidelco German Shepherd Guide Dog."

Very sad indeed. Charlie (and Robbie) touched and enhanced many lives. I learned of this while getting coffee this morning. I saw my friend Toby there. Toby's blind, and not only is a Fidelco client, but is a spokesperson for them. We both were speachless.

I still am.

Bill, my thoughts are with you and yours.

My condolences to you, Bill, and your family.
Sad news.
Your father allowed us to play on wonderful guitars.
Thank you.
Rest In Peace Charlie.

It's good at a time like this to be able to say that he left the world a much richer place. That's true of Charlie in a big way. We're all much richer because of him. And for knowing Bill as well.

Particularly in my case. My father worked for him the whole time I was growing up. You might say that Charlie put food on my parent's table. And MY job at Kaman made it possible for me to buy my first home. Not to mention, it provided me with life long friends.

A true visionary and pioneer in many areas. Aviation, Music and much more. We won't see the likes of Charlie Kaman again soon! Best thoughts, wishes and prayers to Beal and family.
