Charles was a loving father, brother and a good friend to everyone. He was always giving some type of advice and wisdom, even if you did not want it, hoping you would always make the right decision. Charles was stern, but fair- very old school. He always loved to try new things in life and enjoyed skiing, bowling, golfing, softball, referring, fishing, boating, sports and having friends and family over to BBQ and enjoy the pool. You could frequently find Charles in his mancave out on the patio listening to his old school music, which all the neighbors loved and appreciated him playing.
