He trained at Fort Dix where he was injured by shrapnel during exercises and was Honorably discharged from the Army in 1964. Social Charlie was an avid sportsman who enjoyed golf, hunting and fishing as well as being a member of the Knights of Columbus. Most of his career was dedicated to sales, at which he excelled and was recognized for his numerous achievements with American Home Foods and Kraft Foods. For a short time he was also a part owner of the Elidro Bar in Pleasantville NJ. His was a devoted father and his greatest accomplishment was raising his six children with grace, faith and humor. He loved to laugh and tell jokes, even if they were wildly inappropriate.

Charlie retired and moved to Muncy Valley, Pa to pursue his love of the outdoors and spent most of his time hunting and fishing or talking about it. When he returned to South Jersey in 2007 he moved to Tabernacle, where he could watch the wildlife out his window and tell us again and again how he once hunted where this or that shopping center is now located.  He was devoted to his church and loved to discuss theology and the mysteries of faith.
