Charles “Chuck” Hubert England, 92, passed away peacefully. May 22, 2025. He was born September 21, 1932, in Arkansas the son of Hubert and Marie (Stanage) England.

Chuck was a devoted family man whose love for his family shone through in everything he did. He was known for his steady patience, though by the time his seventh child came along, it was said with a smile that his reserves had finally begun to run low. Above all, Chuck was loving, caring, and endlessly supportive, always there with a kind word or helping hand when it was needed most.

Chuck loved hitting the road, whether it was a peaceful drive through the countryside or an adventurous spin down a rugged two-track trail. He always found joy in the journey—but even more so when there was some speed involved.

For most of his life, Chuck was rarely seen without a dog by his side. They were more than pets to him—they were constant companions, loyal shadows who shared in his quiet moments and his everyday adventures since he lost his true-life partner, Mary, in 2016.

Chuck found immense joy in watching his family grow. In his later years, his grandchildren and great-grandchildren became a true source of pride—a light in his life that brought him endless smiles and stories to share. Seeing the next generations thrive was one of his greatest joys.

Chuck is survived by: his children, Rickard (Cheryl) England, Linda (Ted) Hershberger, Debbie (Dale) Osborne, Janice Jewett, Randy England, and Pastor Brian (Nan) England; many grandchildren, great grandchildren, nieces and nephews.

Chuck was preceded in death by: his loving wife, Mary (Dunlop) England; sons, Rodney J. England, and Danny R. England; son-in-law, Russ Jewett; grandson, Terry M. Patterson; and granddaughter, Rebecca Oakes.
