Chuck, also known as Catfish, was a devoted South Carolina Gamecock Fan for the past 45 years, proudly supporting his team through every season. Since retiring from Duke Power, he found joy in traveling and treasured the fellowship that came with getting out and playing golf. Chuck also loved adventure, he spent over 30 years taking motorcycle trips to many different places. He especially cherished time spent at his home on the river, where he loved to entertain family and friends. Watching his grandchildren play sports brought him tremendous happiness. Chuck had a generous heart and a deep love for helping others. Whether through fundraising efforts or lending a hand to those in need, he made a lasting impact on everyone who knew him. His enthusiasm for life and warm spirit will be missed by all who were blessed to call him friend. Chuck was also a member of Taylor's Grove Baptist Church.
