He volunteered on the Beavercreek Fire Department at Station #3 from 1975 until 1978. In his early years he enjoyed bowling, hunting, and fishing with Connie, target shooting and camping. Charlie never knew a stranger and to know him was to love him. He loved animals, children, watching westerns, eating and the Lord. He enjoyed laughing and making other people laugh, singing and dancing. Our world will be a little colder without his warm smile to brighten our days and carry us through.
