Mr. Charles "Chuck" Eugene Keller, 64, passed away on May 1, 2025, in Watertown. Born in Madison, WI, on January 7, 1961, Chuck lived a life defined by hard work, creativity, and devotion to both family and faith.
Chuck began his career as an ironworker, traveling across the country with his uncle's company. These early experiences shaped his skills and character. Over time, he transitioned into other trades, always eager to learn and master new crafts. He generously shared his knowledge with others, leaving a lasting impact on many lives.
An avid outdoorsman, Chuck found peace in nature, camping under the stars, hiking, fishing quiet waters, and tending to his garden. He took pride in growing vegetables and crafting homemade goods such as jams, jellies, maple syrup, along with many other tasty treats and meals. Whether building something useful or beautiful, Chuck poured himself into every project with care, love, and purpose.
A man of deep faith, Chuck was devoted to God and His Word. We thank the Lord for the extra time Charlie remained on this earth, being an 11-year liver transplant survivor. He prayed to God at that time to live to see his first grandchild and now has seven! Three granddaughters and four grandsons. He was preceded in death by his parents, Robert and Mona (Beck) Keller.
He is survived by his beloved wife of 40 years, Linda Keller (Maron), and three children: Brittany A. Keller, Rebecca L. Keller, and Nathan T. Keller. His legacy continues through them - in their memories and values he instilled.
A graveside service will be held at 1 p.m. on Friday, May 9, 2025, at Glenview Memorial Gardens, W1219 Glenview Avenue, Ixonia, WI, 53036. Following the graveside service a celebration of life for all family and friends will be held at Fireman's Park, N8345 Park Street, Ixonia, WI.
