Chuck Lee Pollock

Charles Lee Pollock, a beloved husband, father, grandfather, and friend, passed away peacefully at his home on December 30, 2024. Born in Chehalis, Washington on May 4, 1952 to Joseph A. Pollock and Effie L. (Murray) Pollock, Charles lived a life rich with love and laughter.

A proud Navy veteran who served his country as a Seabee, Charles carried the values of dedication and hard work throughout his life. He earned a degree in Civil Engineering and went on to build not only structures but also lasting memories for those he loved. His hands were capable of fixing anything; whether it was repairing an old car or crafting beautiful pieces for his home that he built with care.

Charles had an infectious sense of humor that could light up any room. He cherished moments spent camping under the stars with family by his side or casting lines into tranquil waters while fishing—activities that brought him immense joy. An avid photographer and collector of antiques—including butter churns—he found beauty in both nature and history alike. Charles was a member of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter Day Saints and loved serving his Heavenly Father.

He is survived by his devoted wife Patty; daughters Debbie Sandrini (Benny) and Denise Nelson (Jeff); brother Ron Pollock (Beverly); sisters Jane Lewis (Don) and Jean Pollock (Tom); as well as grandchildren Benji Sandrini, Aaron Sandrini, Dakota Nelson, Caden Nelson; great-grandchildren Ivy Sandrini, AJ Sandrini, and Sutton Nelson—all of whom will carry forward the legacy of love he instilled in them.

His loyal companion Shera—the dog who never left his side—was always loyal and with him. He spoiled her with tons of toys & tasty treats.

Preceded in death by his parents Joseph A. Pollock and Effie L. Murray-Pollock , and brother, Dale A. Pollock. Charles leaves behind countless memories etched into the hearts of all who knew him—a testament to a life well-lived surrounded by family bonds strengthened through love.

A funeral service honoring Charles's remarkable journey will be held at Sticklen on Saturday February 1st at 11 AM. Celebration of life where friends are invited to gather together celebrating this extraordinary man’s impact on our lives through shared stories filled with love & remembrance, will be held at daughter Debbie’s home.
