He served for two years (1969 - 1971) in the United States Marine Corp. and then graduated from Morrisville Agricultural and Technical College. Chuck worked at different golf courses, Caryl Electric, Carrier Corp and eventually became a member of and retired from IBEW Local 43. His most recent place of employment was Vibra Healthcare as a building engineer. He retired in 2017.
Chuck was known for his empathetic spirit and great hugs. He was thoughtful and filled in many voids in people's lives. We all will miss his silly voicemails wishing us a happy birthday. In Chuck's younger years he loved riding motorcycles with his brothers, son and friends. He was most proud of all of his children's accomplishments, especially his son Chuck's sobriety and his son Kevin becoming a licensed pilot. Chuck spent his retirement years as a member of the Badin Shores Resort Community in New London, NC. He spent many nights singing Karaoke and enjoying time with friends. He loved to fish, help his neighbors and participate in the different activities at the resort. The family is forever grateful for BSR's love for Chuck.
