Charles Warren "Chuck" Brocato Jr.

Charles "Chuck" Warren Brocato, Jr., 68, of Kountze, died Saturday, November 1, 2025. He was born on September 19, 1957, in Beaumont, to Lawanda Devon Taylor Brocato and Charles Warren Brocato, Sr.

Chuck was born and raised in Southeast Texas. He graduated from Forest Park High School, where he made many lifelong friends. He went on to attend electrical apprenticeship school at night while working for Allied Electric. Chuck eventually took over his father's vending business, Tri-Cities Vending, which became the line of work he was most known for.

Chuck married Pamela Crowell in 1981 and together they had three wonderful children: Rachel, Trey, and Nicholas. Chuck always loved a good challenge - whether it was growing a huge garden, building a business idea, hunting for the biggest buck, or catching the biggest fish.

Most of all, his greatest passion was his friends and family. Chuck was happiest as a family man - spending time with his wife, daughter, sons, daughters-in-law, son-in-law, and grandchildren. He loved them all dearly.

Chuck never hesitated to strike up a conversation or form a friendship with anyone. He brought joy to everyone who crossed his path. Chuck will be missed by too many to count but will forever be watching over all of us.

Survivors include his wife, Pam Brocato; children, Rachel McMillan and her husband, Courtney; Charles "Trey" Brocato III and his wife, Holly; and Nick Brocato and his wife, Marlena, all of Kountze; and grandchildren, Brooklyn, Bennie, Charlie, Gentry, Jase, and Ella.

He is preceded in death by his parents.

His Memorial Mass will be 10:00 a.m., Saturday, November 8, 2025, at Infant Jesus Catholic Church, 243 South LHS Drive, Lumberton.
