Charles had many hobbies that he enjoyed devoting his time to, including camping, wrestling, bowling, computer and arcade gaming. He also loved dining and cooking, and especially loved any chance to use his kitchen gadgets. As a social person, he found joy in spending quality time with family, friends, and acquaintances – both in person and online – and he loved being around animals, especially his cats, Leven, JD, and Lica.
