Charles Lapham GLASGOW — Charles Lapham, 75, of Winn School Road, Glasgow, passed away at his home at noon, Monday, Oct. 26, 2009, from lymphoma. Charlie was born in Fort Edward and grew up in Glens Falls, N.Y. He lived many years in Lincoln Park, N.J., and for the last 20 years lived in Glasgow. Charlie graduated from Clarkson University with a degree in electrical engineering. He worked many years for Standard Motors Products in Long Island City, N.Y. He was transferred to Sorenson Ind in Glasgow in 1990, where he retired. He was a veteran of the U.S. Army having served in the Panama Canal Zone.

He had a lifelong interest in science, particularly botany, and proudly developed a taxonomy and collections database called Index Kentuckiensis which is in use at several universities and herberia. One of his favorite places to observe native flora was at Nature Conservancy sanctuaries, as well as Mammoth Cave National Park and Brigadoon Nature Preserve.
