Charles Huggins Obituary

February 1, 1932 - March 7, 2018
Charles E. Huggins, age 86, passed away on March 7, 2018, in San Antonio, Texas. He joined the US Navy at the age of 17, serving honorably for four years. Upon his return home, he went to an Electrical Apprenticeship program, and became an electrician, working for 25 years before opening his own business. He enjoyed spending his time with youth groups from both his church community, as well as his daughter's high school band. Charlie retired from the work force in 1991. He spent his retirement enjoying his vacation home in Colorado. Some of Charlie's favorite hobbies included traveling with his family, taking flying lessons, reading, listening to music, and he was an avid dancer. One of his favorite things in life was to enjoy quality time with his two great-grandchildren.

Charlie is survived by his loving wife, Elizabeth Price; daughter, Lisa Huggins Grosch (Perry); grandchildren, Amanda Reinhart (Sam), Derek Grosch (Kayla); and great-grandchildren, Colt and Kase Reinhart.
The family will receive friends from 6:00-8:00PM, Monday, March 12, at Porter Loring Mortuary North. A graveside service will be held on Tuesday, March 13, at 11:00 AM in Mission Burial Park North.
