Chuck was born on March 2, 1945 in Ponca City, Oklahoma to Henry and Dorthea Humphreys. He grew up all over being that his father worked in pipeline construction but they settled in Plainview when he was in the second grade. He went on to become a Metal Fabricator and could literally build and construct just about anything. In 1961, he married the love of his life, Eva Faye Horton and together they created a wonderful life. He was a loving husband, amazing father, and awesome grandfather. He served the Lord faithfully throughout so many areas in his life. He was a deacon at Parkview Baptist Church, served as a Sunday school teacher, and RA leader. After years of fabricating, he started Chuck Humphreys Industries where he designed, built, and sold spray rigs. He loved to build or work on anything that had wheels. He worked hard and he played hard and always enjoyed the company of his family and his friends. Chuck and Eva once served as dorm parents at Cal Farley’s Boys Ranch and even fostered children in their home for several years. Above all, he loved Jesus and relied on him throughout his life.
Chuck was preceded in death by his parents, Henry and Dorthea Humphreys; and a daughter, Pamela Humphreys.
