He provided for the family as a meat cutter and managed apartments, 2 years later Shawn joined the family. Sadly, Charles and Darla were later divorced.
He loved music and showing off many styles of dancing. He enjoyed being on the ski patrol on Mt. Hood. If he wasn’t on Mt. Hood snow skiing, he could be found water-skiing on the Columbia River with his bright shiny blue speed boat. His love of bow hunting led him to starting his own hunting scent business called Moccasin Joe Inc. He eventually left Oregon and moved to Victor, Montana to expand his business and started to raise elk. He eventually remarried in 1997 to Anne Vittori at which time they were sealed in the Salt Lake City Temple. He expanded his business with the addition of Elk Valley Ranch in Idaho.

Shortly thereafter his daughter in law Amy found him a new man’s best friend Angel. He grew to love Angel quickly and they were inseparable almost instantly. Marty and his dog Angel will miss him dearly. Chuck had a lot of very important friends one of which is one of his long-term workers for his business Michelle Morris, who has been an awesome friend and employee.
