Charles Ray LeValley

Charles Ray LeValley, age 95, was born at home in Hartford City, Indiana on September 6, 1930 and passed into eternal life in his sleep on March 3, 2026. He is in the arms of the Lord, his loving parents, Blanche Leona, née Ratliff, and James Edward LeValley, and his dear sister, Deloris (the late Robert) Rea.

He leaves to mourn his devoted wife of 40 years, Charlene Mary, née Jones, and his cherished children, Curtis (Mary Beth, née Riel) Ray and Cara Marie (Andrew) Bergen. He was also the proud papa of Katelyn Mary and Curtis John (Valeria, née Siemer). He will always be remembered by his in-laws, the Broderick, Damiani, Priester, Jacques, Kelly, and Krall families.

May Charles, a humble and gentle man, rest in everlasting peace.
