Charles met the love of his life, Nancy Lucille Price, and after asking permission, he took her hand in marriage on January 7, 1963, and she fought with him until the end.
Charles was proud of his country and what it stood for. He served 4 years in the Army, while spending the next 26 years in the Navy, retiring at the status of E-8 SCPO.
