He was born on December 13, 1945 to the late LaVerne Bimber and Ina Jane Nuttall. After completing high school, he joined the United States Navy, serving two tours during the Vietnam War. After the service, he returned to the Sugar Grove area to grow his family. Charles worked and retired from years of doing maintenance at Sysco in Jamestown, NY.
