He was born on April 14, 1935 in Melmore, Ohio to Richard and Berniece Mohr who preceded him in death along with four sisters; Phyllis Valentine, Deanna Koch, Vivian Weaver, and Mary (Polly) Ritchie. Two sisters, Ruth Christofer and Evelyn (John) Knaup survive him, along with numerous nieces and nephews. He was a member of the Melmore United Methodist Church, and graduated from Eden Local (Melmore) High School in 1953.

Chuck started his career in education as a teacher for 5 years in the mid-Ohio area and enjoyed coaching Junior High basketball. He then became a principal for an additional 26 years after which he retired to his cherished condo on Singer Island, West Palm Beach, Florida. There he spent his days playing (and excelling) in tennis, winning many tournaments and trophies. In the evenings he would be found at one of several special hangouts where everyone knew his name.
