Known to family and friends by several monikers, Chuck/Charles/Charlie/Pop/CB/Sea Dog/Pop Charlie/Papa, each one spelling love. He was a loyal and true friend, that never met a stranger and had a full well-lived life centered around family. Charles had a zest for life, loved to travel, spend time with those he cared about, attend the Indy 500, play golf, going to the beach, a cocktail or two, football and so much more. He was the embodiment of joy, infectious warmth, a great spirit and will be tremendously missed.
