Chuck was passionate about hunting and archery. Chuck received his first bow from an auction at the Mule deer Foundation from Bob Kendall and from then on was an avid archer. He loved spending times at the Celilo Bowmen Archery Range and wore many hats, including president, vice-president, range master. Chuck would be at the range on an almost daily basis, taking care of grounds and shooting his bow and just visiting. Chuck and Dot enjoyed participating in various archery shoots. Some people would say that Chuck was the heart of the archery range: always willing to help and always willing to share his passion of archery with anyone who wanted to learn.

Chuck retired after 30 years at the Oregon Cherry Growers where he made lifetime friends.

Chuck is deeply missed by those who loved him.
