Chuck and his wife Ruth were married for 48 amazing years and lived a blissful life together.Chuck had been fighting a long battle with cancer. A sudden decline in his health occurred his last couple of days. He was definitely a fighter and held on as long as he could. His strength was admirable.Chuck was always making jokes and knew how to put a smile on your face. He worked for Ply Trim West and was a truck driver for 50 years. His favorite hobby was to visit the Emerald Queen casino frequently and get down on those slots. He was a loving husband, father, brother, uncle and a proud army veteran and will always be remembered, talked about and cherished through his loved ones. He is survived by his wife Ruth, his sons Chuck and Patrick, two sisters and many nieces and nephews. A memorial celebration to be announced at a later date.
