Very sad news, but from what I have heard, he led a wonderful life. A huge contributor to the hobby, he will be missed by many.

Definitely a sad day for collectors. His wiki page has just been updated and here's a link to the Canadian Coin News announcement on Facebook:

May Jim Charlton rest in peace and my condolences go out to his family. Hadn't it been for Jim Charlton, the world and hobby of numismatics wouldn't be where it is today. His research and publications should be educated for future generations.

Here's the copy of the book I got freshly released at the 2001 RCNA (then CNA) convention in Quebec City. I think that was the first time meeting him, but I'm not certain.
