Charles S. Trimper Jr. (Charlie), 81, of The Villages, Florida, passed away on Sunday, July 13, 2025.

Charlie was born in Buffalo, NY, to Charles and Julia (DeNisco) Trimper. He was a father to his son, Chuck, and his daughter, Sherry. He proudly served in the US Army from 1962 to 1964. He attended Doyle Beauty School on the GI Bill and was a licensed hairdresser. He was a hard-working man and held many jobs over his lifetime, eventually retiring as a foreman from the City of Buffalo Water Department. He was a natural athlete and enjoyed bowling, softball, and golf having scored three holes-in-one. He was a motorcycle man and drove his Harley-Davidson cross country and everywhere. He found great joy in dancing, in particular his version of Swing, and was often told he was “smooth.” He loved to dress and look sharp and was easily spotted in his favorite hat. In 1988, he made the smartest move of his life and married his love and best friend, Ann. He will be forever missed.
