Charles Erwin Obituary

Obituary published on Legacy.com by Rush Funeral Home - Pineville on Mar. 30, 2026.
Memorial services for Mr. Charles Raymond Erwin will be held at 10:00 a.m. on Saturday, April 4, 2026, at Main Street Mission, Pineville, with Reverends Sam West, Rod Lenoix, and Josh Vester officiating. Visitation will begin at 8:00 a.m., under the direction of Rush Funeral Home, Pineville.

Mr. Erwin, 83, of Pineville, entered eternal rest on Sunday, March 29, 2026, in his residence surrounded by his loving family.

Charles was a devoted member of his church, Main Street Mission, where his faith guided his life and relationships. He found great joy in woodworking, creating pieces that reflected both his skill and patience. He also loved riding his Harley, embracing the freedom and adventure it brought him. He will be deeply missed by all who knew and loved him.

He was preceded in death by one son, Shawn Beeson; one daughter, Sherry Moreau; two grandsons, Willie Dryden and Josh Hall; his parents, Jack and Wilma Erwin; one brother, Paul Erwin; his mother-in-law, Noma B. Walters; and brother-in-law, Steve Walters.

Those left to mourn his loss and cherish his memory include his loving wife of forty years, Bettye Erwin of Pineville; two sons, James Erwin of Pineville, and Ronnie Erwin (Pam) of Ball; two daughters, Charlie Slaughter (Dennis) of Pollock, and Shelby Beeson of Pineville; five grandchildren; fourteen great grandchildren; and eight great-great grandchildren.
