He was born November 1st, 1926, in East Troy, Wisconsin. His parents were the late C.R. & Dorothy Ozmun Sarsfield. His brother, Jack, died in 1999.

Chuck & Helen lived in South Holland and New Lenox, Illinois, before moving to Hot Springs Village in 1999.
He spent most of his career at the Chicago Stockyards in the cattle commission business and then CUNA Mutual before retiring in 1995.
His passions in life included singing in the church choir, playing the harmonica, new restaurants, reading, and playing gin rummy with friends.
