Growing up the oldest of three brothers and in possession of one of the biggest of Cody hearts, Chuck always took on the role of the protector from early on. Not to mention his blonde hair and blue eyes – he was the epitome of the California kid. Excelling in all he took on, football and karate were highlights of his later teenage/early adult years. Loving the freedom of building a fast car and absorbing all of the life skills he could along his way, he worked hard to create a life he loved. Falling in the footsteps of his dad, construction became a way of life always providing for the ones he loved most. Married with three well-loved children, he spent many years fulfilling adventures spanning from California to Indiana. Family life changed a bit in the middle with new, great love and more family added to the greater picture. He made his way back to California for a while and he lived - with his greatest dream to return one day again. When he loved, he loved hard. When he cared, he cared greatly. And when he was mad, well – if you know, you know. Chuck acquired a wealth of friends and family along his journey that he was beyond grateful for and memories we will all cherish forever.
