Charles Keith "Chuck" Tapp passed away May 31, 2002 in Seattle, WA.
Born August 9, 1932 in Vernonia, Oregon, he spent his childhood working with his father and brothers in the family fuel and feed business, as well as helping to hand-build the family farmhouse in Cornelius, OR. He studied business at Seattle University and later served his country in the U.S. Navy. After his discharge, Chuck began work at United Airlines, a career that lasted for 40 years and took him on many fascinating, adventurous trips around the world. When he walked into his SeaTac job at United Airlines, a position he held for 40 years, he took a shine to a pretty blonde behind the counter named Dede Burns. They would be together 38 years until her passing in 1997.
Chuck and Dede were able to enjoy their love of travel, planes and visiting other cultures around the world. They especially loved Hawaii and taking a cruise here and there to cure their "itchy feet".
He is survived by three dauhhters, Lauran T. Moore, Allison A. Moser, Shannon Tapp Mcintoch, and their husbands, Graham, Bill and David. Chuck celebrated and took great pride in his seven wonderful grandchildren; David Burns & Anna Rose Sigel; Sam and Annie Moser; Amelia Joy, Andrea Dee and Nathan Thomas McIntosh. All the grandchildren have comfort in knowing that "Papa and Mom-Mom are together now". They will all greatly miss Papa's August birthday parties, and his great love for them just as they are.
His parents, John E. and Bessie Tapp and brother Martin preceded him him death. Survived in Oregon by sisters, Martha Border and Mary McDonald, and brother John A. Tapp. A friend Arlene Conover was a companion to Chuck in these last four years. Chuck had an open heart for those he loved, and was always telling a "funny" or sharing a humorous insight that was sure to brighten your day ... even if it was for the 40th time. Of all, Dad, we will miss your jokes and the humor you saw in life. Dear Dad - remember, always, that we love you.
