Mr. Charles "Chuck" Allan Counts, age 53, of
Lenoir, NC passed away on February 16, 2024 at his home.
Chuck was born to Challan Louise Harris Counts and the late John Stephen Counts on December 26, 1970 in Palm Beach County, Florida. He was very proud to be from Florida and very proud to live in North Carolina.
In addition to his father, he is preceded in death by his brother, John Stephen Counts Jr.
Those left to cherish his memory include his wife, Paige Counts; son, Charles Allan Counts III (Sarah); daughter, Madison K Counts (David); sister, Marie Counts Rodriguez; grandchild, Simon John Counts; niece, Olivia Anderson (Greg); nephews John Ross Rodriguez and A.J. Rodriguez; Mother and Father In Law, Larry and Patsy Richardson; and sister in law, Allison Richardson.
Chuck always spoke his mind. He loved everyone he met with his whole heart, and he never met a stranger (even though he insisted he was shy). Chuck loved cars and movies, especially westerns. He could quote you any movie line right off the top of his head. Chuck graduated from Caldwell County Community College and Technical Institute as well as Appalachian State University. He enjoyed motorcycles and cars. But most importantly, Chuck loved his family. He was the best dad ever. His grandson was the light of his life. He will be remembered as a wonderful man who leaves behind a stunning legacy.
