Charles graduated from Loyal High School in 1959. On October 3, 1959, he married the love of his life at Corpus Christi Church in Bakerville. Together, they began their life on the family farm located a mile and a quarter east of Spokeville. There, they raised their family, instilling values of love, a strong work ethic, and Christian faith.
Charlie had a deep appreciation for the outdoors and was an avid hunter and fisherman. Alongside farming, he built a successful career as a Seed Corn Dealer, which afforded them to travel extensively, visiting countries around the world and all 50 states.
After retiring from farming in 1999, Charles and Grace built a home in Bakerville, continuing their passion for travel. They especially enjoyed the freedom of exploring 49 of the 50 states by motorcycle. In his retirement, Charlie's love for the outdoors led him to work part-time in the sporting goods department at Walmart for seven years.
Charles was a true family man. He loved spending time with his children, grandchildren, and the "Greats" who jokingly called him Grandpa Goat. Dinners and holidays were great family gatherings. Cribbage and Sheep Head were among some of his favorite card games to play with family and with his friends at the Senior Citizen Center.
Charlie is survived by Grace, his life-long love of 65 years, and their three daughters, Angel (Peter) Schecklman of Loyal, Victoria (Leon) Piech of Marshfield, and Lisa Pipkorn (Matt Gilles) of Ridgeway. He is also survived by ten loving grandsons Joseph (Nicole) Haebig, Joshua (Theresa) Haebig, Matthew (Kim) Schecklman, Ryan (Kehly) Schecklman, Cody Schecklman, Tyler (Lindsay) Weis, Richard Lowe, Maxwell Pipkorn, David Pipkorn, Alexander Pipkorn, and 11 great grandchildren: Wyatt, Whitley, Paisley, Jaxon Haebig, Jordan, Abagale, Joselyn Haebig, Daelyn, Kilyn Schecklman, Adalynn and Killian Schecklman.
Charles is further survived by his sister Eleanor (Melvin) Johnson of Marshfield, Gertrude Jicinsky of Stratford, and Sylvester (Janie) Weis of Chili.
Charles was preceded in death by parents Reinhold and Lorraine Weis, his daughter Pamela Haebig, and his son Christopher Weis, brother-in-law Robert Jicinsky, son-in-law Brian Pipkorn.
