After retiring, he did volunteer work for TWA with Operation Lift Off. He worked as a bereavement counselor with TWA after the flight 800 crash assisting families .
Charles loved his wife and family, he was very proud of all of his grandchildren and great grandchildren.
He loved watching parades, college football, working on his computer, traveling the world, going to to the gym until the young age of 89 when a hip injury stopped him from going. Listening and recording music was a passion of his.
He was always friendly, outgoing, never had a bad word to say about anyone, he lived his life to the fullest, and was the perfect gentleman.
