For many years he held the position of Deacon and the office of Superintendent at Mt. Carmel Missionary Baptist Church.

His interests included fishing, being a consummate community leader, dedication to his Alma Mata; The University of Tennessee (Go Vols) and the love for dancing. However, the accomplishment that made his heart smile the most was being a Father, Grandfather (Grandpa Charlie) and Great grandfather. His first ministry was always, always, always his children, grandchildren, and great grandchildren.
