Charles Minix Obituary

Charles Michael (Mike) Minix

July 25, 1957 - July 14, 2025

67, of Goochland County, Virginia, passed away on Monday, July 14, 2025. He is preceded in death by his parents, John W. and Sara C. Minix. He is survived by his wife of 41 years, Debbie Minix; his sons Rusty Minix (Jennifer), Tyler Minix (Katherine); daughter, Chelsea Minix; two grandsons; sisters Rebecca Munse (Charlie), Martha Boles (Steve); and many loved nieces and nephews.

Mike was an exceptional husband, Dad, Daddy, Papa Bear, Grandpa and Uncle who was always dedicated to his family and provided the love and support they needed. He was also always there to help a friend or neighbor in need. He had a career as a Local Supervisor/Lineman with Dominion Resources for over 40 years where he loved his work and built many close relationships with his coworkers. Mike was extremely disciplined when it came to his physical health. He enjoyed running half marathons and working out at the gym regularly. Some of his favorite times were spent at the beach surfing and fishing with family and friends and having Mahi sandwiches and french fries at two of his favorite Corolla restaurants.

Mike was a wonderful person and friend who was dearly loved by many and who will be truly missed.

Earlier today

Debbie and family words can not express my sorrow learning of Mike´s passing. In addition to being a wonderful human being, Mike was an exemplary employee for Dominion Energy (VEPCO) while his time as the Local Supervisor for the Goochland area. For family and friends find comfort in GOD´s promise to us all (John 3:16). We will all be together again one day.
