Charles Nardine
March 22nd, 1947 - February 11th, 2024
Charles William Nardine departed this life in the early morning hours of February 11, 2024. His voyage through life is most notably remembered by his undeniable love and generosity to his family and friends.
Charlie was born on March 22, 1947, in Trinidad, Colorado to Ben and Geneva Nardine. He attended Trinidad High School where he was a standout football player, graduating in 1966. After graduation he enlisted in the U.S. Marine Corps and served a thirteen month tour of duty in Vietnam. Up until his death, he remained active in representing Vietnam Veterans, creating lifelong friendships. He was always proud to wear his Vietnam Veteran’s cap. Upon his Honorable Discharge he enrolled at Trinidad State Jr. College for two years majoring in Criminal Justice.
Charlie worked a number of jobs, with his most recent as a truck driver prior to his retirement. He enjoyed going to the casinos and watching football, basketball and hockey. His most memorable moments involved going on fishing trips with his family and friends and spending time with friends at the ranch in Kim, Colorado. He also enjoyed taking road trips with his favorite niece.
Charlie is known for his sense of humor and kindness. He always had a special place in his heart for others and maintained a willingness to help them. He had an outgoing personality and often struck up conversations with people he did not know. To him, no one was a stranger, but a person who had a purpose in life. He touched so many people in his life and he will be greatly missed by all who knew him. His memory will forever live on in our hearts.
Charlie is survived by his beloved wife of 51 1/2years, Virginia and son, Charles Jr., his sisters Marianne and Angie and brother Ben, along with numerous nieces, nephews, cousins, in-laws, and countless friends.
