Charles "Charlie" Bennett Viviano

He was born February 17, 1955 in St. Louis, MO. He was the son of Sam and Bonnie Viviano. He grew up in Belleville, MO and moved to FL where he spent the majority of his life. He was a carpenter by trade and could always be found doing projects around the house. He would always say he could build anything with his hands.

He was of the Catholic faith and enjoyed saying his prayers every night. He loved spending his time on the Indian River and hanging out at the Micco Marina where he lived for 30+ years. His favorite past times were boating, fishing, scuba diving, camping out on the islands, dancing (his favorite being the Jitterbug), listening to classic rock n roll station 95.9 from sun up until sun down, playing ring darts on his back porch, and he could always be found with a cooler full of ice cold beer! Charlie will be remembered for his boisterous sense of humor, his big blue eyes and luxurious dark hair (he was very proud to be Sicilian), his competitive nature, and infectious smile. He will also be remembered for his other side as well- the ornery and carefree spirit in the nursing home where he became quite the ladies man with all of the nurses.

He is survived by his sons, Hayden and Skylar Viviano, his sisters, Beverly Peluso and Vivian Viviano. His brothers Richard “Dick” Viviano, Sam Viviano, Peter Viviano and the mother of his children, Mari Parsons. He is preceded in death by his parents and brother, Danny Viviano.

A celebration of life will be planned at a later date. His sons and family members plan to spread his ashes in places he loved and hoped to see all over the world.

In lieu of flowers we ask that you enjoy a beer on the water in Chazmo’s honor.
