In December 1954, Chuck and his family moved to Barnsdall, OK, where he grew up and attended the Barnsdall schools. He attended Tri County Tech in high school for Auto Mechanics which became his profession.

He married Brenda Sue Potts on July 12, 1975, at the Ochelata Fire Baptized Holiness Church. They made their homes in Barnsdall, Bartlesville and currently in Ochelata, OK. They were blessed with two children and four grandchildren.

Chuck worked for Oakley Pontiac and Buick. He owned the DX gas station in Barnsdall for a short time. He was employed by the Phillips Petroleum Co. for 29 years as a Freight mechanic at its transportation center. He retired in 2009 and loved being retired.

Among his accomplishments in life were Chuck's work with the Ochelata Fire Dept. and service on the Ochelata City Council.

He was serving as lay pastor for the First Bartlesville Church of the Nazarene where he and his wife were members. He was dedicated to visiting nursing homes in the area for 14 years. He felt it was a calling for his life and loved it.

More recently, Chuck was working for the Davis Family Funeral Home in Dewey, OK. He also had just started a new business venture with his son Tim and was so excited to be able to work with his son. Chuck loved raising horses, cows, goats, sheep and chickens, and of course his three little pups. He loved children and animals.
