Charlie was excellent with his hands and had a knack for mechanics and science, even as a child. He loved farming in his early years and moved into a life of working in diesel mechanics. He was known to tinker in his shed for hours. His favorite past time was salmon fishing and hunting, especially the last ten years of life in the Pacific Northwest. He would camp for weeks at a time, with his cherished companion, Maxwell. He leaves behind his beloved second Labrador, Max. Charlie had a contagious laugh with an eccentric, passionate personality. He was hardworking, tough as nails and unconditionally loved his children, grandchildren, and two dogs.
