Chuck was a pipefitter for 60 years. He had owned and operated with his son and grandsons, Accurate Fire Protection, something he was very proud of.
Chuck was one of those guys that never knew a stranger, his ornery spirit made him very easy to talk to. A very kind-hearted man, he was giving to both his family and friends.
He loved the outdoors. The mountains out west held a special spot in his heart. He loved all kinds of music, but was especially fond of Elvis, Chuck would often refer to himself and say me and Elvis did this or that, he loved his shows. Chuck had enjoyed riding motorcycles, traveling and just being with his friends and family.
