Charlie was a good teacher and great to talk with.  Always willing to
demonstrate at meetings and published a great book for smiths of all levels.
Surely will be missed.

Percival Charles Sutton of Oakville, Ontario died this afternoon, September
16,  after an extended battle with cancer.

Charlie was an old school blacksmith having served an apprenticeship in a
shipyard beginning at age fourteen and served as a blacksmith in the Royal
Navy during the war.

As a member and president of the Ontario Artist Blacksmith Association
Charlie passed on many of his skills to students across North America, both
in person at the many demonstrations he gave and via his book, Under a
Spreading Chestnut Tree.

Thank you Charlie for your many contributions here.  We will miss you.

Funeral arrangements are pending.

Robert Vaughan
Ontario Artist Blacksmith Association
