Charles was preceded in passing by his lovely bride of 62 years, Letha Brittain; his parents; one brother, Robert and two sisters, Velma and Barbara.
He is survived by four children, Carl (Heidi), Cheryl (Gary), Joann (J.C.) and Robin; several grandchildren; one brother, Jerry (Jean) Brittain; one sister, Juanita (John) Lutz and several nieces and nephews. He also leaves behind many friends including Dona.
Charles started driving truck at the age of 14. He was the founder of Brittain Trucking and the Co-Founder of Brittain Cut Stone.
