He is preceded in death by his mother, Susan K. (nee Musial) King.
He is survived by his parents Charles G. and Michelle King; sister, Christy A. King; step-siblings, Lauren, Courtney, Kelly and Tony; many aunts, uncles, Frank, Kari, Rose and Patti; many firefighter brothers and sisters, along with numerous other extended family and friends.
Chuck was a dedicated and proud firefighter, always ready to serve and protect his community with courage and honor. Beyond firefighting, he found joy in life’s simple pleasures, spending time on the water, boating with friends and family, and meticulously detailing cars, a reflection of his attention to detail and care for all he did. His pets were a cherished part of his life, bringing him happiness and companionship. Chuck’s passion for his work, his hobbies, and the love he had for his pets made him a remarkable person who touched the lives of many.
