OMLID, Marvin Charles "Chuck"
Chuck passed away on September 2nd with his Melody by his side following a very short and private battle with pancreatic cancer.

He leaves behind his fiancee Melody, his father Marvin, brothers Rod and Dwayne Omlid, sisters Cathy (Dean Hermanson, Tammy (Doug) Barnett, Joni (Lonnie) Johnson. He also leaves behind, his daughters Kristy LeClair, Kelsi Betanzo, and his grandchildren.
Chuck's love of life, need for fun, and passion for anything aviation will be sorely missed by his loved ones, friends, colleagues, and his coworkers at Burton Construction. He loved his horses and dog Lillie, fishing, boating, duck/goose hunting and four wheeling and especially loved his trips to Kona, Hawaii with Melody
A celebration of Chuck's life will be held at St. John's Lutheran Church 223 South Hallett St. in Medical Lake, WA on September 29th. at 2 pm.

Chuck, I think of you often and will miss you forever. Well, that is until we are united again ;) I missed my big brother's phone call on my birthday, Dec. 8th.
Love you.

In 40 years of FAA work in 50 states, Chuck is one of the most honorable colleagues we have ever encountered. We hold many great memories - he will surely be missed.

I am so glad to have called Chuck my friend, a wonderful example of a hardworking, kind exceptional human being. Always willing to help others and so kind and a gentle soul. You will be missed.

My Uncle Chuck....even though we didn't see eachother often I always felt very close to you. We could always pick up from wherever we left off. I too take comfort in knowing you are now free from pain, even though the thought of knowing you are gone hurts my heart. I didn't know what to say to you when you visited last...what do you say? I hope that just you seeing that I was there was enough for you to know how much I loved and would miss you. You were ALWAYS happy and in good spirits whenever you were around. I can still see your smile and hear your laugh. You always made a point to ask me how my life was going and what was going on with me whenever you were here visiting. You are a great man that will be missed by so many. I am so glad you have Grandma to take care of you up there. Love always

Chuck was a GREAT BROTHER, I miss him so much and can't believe either that he's gone and there will never again be a Christmas card waiting for me on the tree at Dwayne's from him. I know he's with Mom now and they're watching over all of us. No more suffering for them, how lucky they are. Like the poem says "the chain has been broken", I can't wait for it to be whole again! Love you Big Brother-See you soon.

Dad, I still cannot comprehend that you're gone, even after this summer's journey. You are gone too early from our lives. I only find comfort and relief that you are no longer in pain and free. I miss you too much and I'll be seeing you on the Other side. But until then, promise to keep listening Dad, I'm still going to have those long talks with you... All my love...
