Charles was a proud graduate of Hogan High School, class of 1965. He faithfully served his country as a Field Wireman in the Army National Guard and was deployed to Vietnam in support of the war. Following his honorable discharge, he devoted his professional career to the insulation industry.

Above all, Charles treasured his family. He will be remembered for his humor, loyalty, and love, which will live on through the memories of those who knew him best.
