Chuck graduated from Cecil High School in 1953.  He joined the United States Army in 1956 and served his country honorably, like so many other men of his generation.

His hobbies and interests included golfing, antique bottling, ancestry and coin collecting. He was a past member of the American Legion posts in Cecil and Houston.
