A 1943 graduate of Riverside Military Academy in Gainesville, GA., Charles immediately enlisted in the Army Air Corps and participated in 49 missions as a tail gunner on a B-25 over Italy and  Germany.  Shortly before he shipped out, he married his grade school sweetheart, Grace Brown, of Winter Garden.  At the conclusion of World War II, he and Grace moved to Gainesville where he completed a BS in Agriculture under the GI Bill, graduating in 1949.

Returning to West Orange he began operating a citrus management company and acquired properties with opportunities to grow citrus.  Before the freezes of 1983, 1985 and 1989 his company managed over 7,000 acres of citrus being harvested for juice and fresh fruit.  Still desiring to be involved with horticulture he embarked into ornamental plants starting CharleStan Landscaping Nursery in Winter Garden and on the family homestead.  He loved nurturing his plants and worked at the nursery until he was 88. 

He served on the board of Florida Citrus Mutual and had a call in radio show relating to citrus management.  In addition he was active in Lion's Club International and the Winter Garden Baptist Church. 
 

Retirement included traveling the US, Canada, Europe, Asia and Africa.  Charles and Grace celebrated 52 years of marriage before she passed away in 1997.  He subsequently met Alice Hoelzer of Deland Traverse City, Michigan on a Farm Bureau Tour of the Netherlands in 1998.  They  married in 2000 and moved to King's Ridge, an active adult community in Clermont.  This served as their base for exploring the globe.  Even with the constraints of Alzheimer's they were able to take a Road Scholar trip to Chincoteague Island in May and explore the art museums in St. Petersburg and Tampa in June. 

Charles was predeceased by his oldest child, Gretchen, in 1994.  His descendants include sons, Chuck (Louise) and Stan (Sherri) of Windermere, Florida, 6 Grandsons, 4 Granddaughters, 13 Great Grandsons, 5 Great Granddaughters and 3 babies expected later this year.  He was also predeceased by his older brother, James and his younger siblings, Betty (Shuman) and William.
