Charles retired in 1991 from teaching at Yorktown High School where he also coached track, cross country, and freshman basketball. After retirement he spent time working at U-Haul and Comcast. Charles was a member of the Yorktown United Methodist Church where he had served as trustee in the past. Charles loved watching, participating, and coaching sports. He found great joy in reaching and helping children with his gifts and talents.

Charles is survived by two sisters, Susan Williams and Linda Riley; a brother, David Newman (wife Rebecca); and several nieces, nephews, and valued friends.
