He was the first building engineer at F&M Bank on Harvard, working there from 1965 until 1978. Charlie was a carpenter foreman for Tulsa Rig & Reel for many years, until F&M was built, and he sought a career change. He proudly served his country for 3 years as a paratrooper in the Korean War.

Charlie wanted to donate his body to science and Big Gift received his body. A memorial service will be held at 2pm, on Friday, June 27, at Kirk of The Hills Presbyterian Church. An honor guard will follow with a reception at the church following the service. Charlie was a friend of Bill W. and greatly enjoyed the fellowship.
