Charles (Chuck) Maerten

Chuck was a great friend and we shared many emails through the years. Served with him in USAFSS and the 604th comm Sq. I will miss talking with him and sharing many stories. He was one year older than me and a super person. I retired from USAF in in 1976 and retired from Manatee Sheriffs Office in August 2025. I will miss our talks through the years. Jim Brand

My heart goes out to all you! Chuck was an amazing man. I consider him a dear friend and colleague. He always made sure to stop in and say hello when he came to Toyota. He will be missed as Anne is also. Together they are again. Deepest Sympathy to all. Pam @Toyota

I met Chuck through his grandson Michael who was my trainer when I first joined the military! I really enjoyed talking with Chuck and listening to his stories and his guidance he had. It has been a pleasure to get to know you and learn things from you over the years. May you rest in peace and continue to watch over your family and friends like Ann has watched over you and everyone! Susanne as the days and weeks pass, and as you return to life's routine, may you continue to feel comforted...

Chuck and I met through his late grandson Mike. Even after we lost Mike, Chuck and I remained friends. I enjoyed talking with Chuck as he always had an easy way of putting life and current events into perspective. His insights and life outlook was very much inline with mine. Even though we were almost 50 years apart in age. I will miss you dear friend! Hope you and Ann hold a spot for us.

We met chuck when we moved to lacresta. We had m a ny talks about growing up in new jersey. Lots of lunches at uwe restaurant. We will miss you dearly.

In the small amount of ti.e I spent with him I enjoyed everything minute. He was a great man and will truly be missed.
