Charles was born in Mountain Grove, Missouri. He married the love of his life, Lillie Marie McGehee, in October of 1946 in Harrison, Arkansas and eventually moved from their home in Missouri to Davenport, Iowa. Charles retired from Oscar Mayer after 30 years and then worked part time at various jobs over the next several years. These last years, Charlie has enjoyed gardening at his new home and fishing as often as he could. He was a faithful member of Grandview Baptist Church but missed fellowshipping with them the last few months due to COVID restrictions.

He leaves behind his daughters, Janet (Larry) Wright of Katy, TX; Vicki (David) Long and Kathy Roberts of Plano, TX. and daughter-in-law Debbie Roberts of Davenport, IA. He and Lillie also leave a legacy of grandchildren and great-grandchildren: Charles and Tim Johnson, Jennifer Jones, Kristin Tredemeyer and Brian Wright, Eric and Kevin Roberts and Lisa Marie Urban, Sarah Long, Becky Erling and Rachel Long: and great grandchildren, Kaleah, Tyler, Tanner, Karis, Ethan, Asher, Emily, Kaitlyn, Dean, Vaughn, Jacob, Lily, Lincoln, Creston, Harper, Isabella, Adalyn, Hudson, Cade, great-great granddaughter, Blakely and his beloved dog, Rosie.
