Veteran Nutrite sales rep Chuck Egleston passes away

Longtime Nutrite technical sales representative Chuck Egleston has passed away at the age of 73.

“Chuck had many lifelong friends,” Nutrite’s Ken Mcleod, on behalf of the company, stated in a notice to the company’s business partners. “He was a true friend who valued human connection. He had a profound impact on all who knew him – a kind and gentle man who brought energy and laughter to a room.

“Professionally, he was well known and respected by both golf superintendents and the lawn care operators in Ontario and Western Canada. He was proud of his accomplishments and always thought of his customers in a personal way and cared about each of them.

“In retirement, Chuck continued to mentor and advise his successors. Those close to him knew of his deep appreciation and love for family, his passion for art and sports (especially golf), his keen sense of humour, great stories and, of course, his laugh. We will miss his hearty laugh and infectious smile.

“Our condolences to his wife Linda, son Charlie and their family.”
