Chuck was a good man with a heart of gold. He worked hard all his life. He learned metallurgy at McNally’s and aluminum permanent mold process at Hix Corporation. In 1987 he started his own aluminum manufacturing business, Denco Aluminum. In 2015 he retired, leaving his son, Tyler, to run the business. Even in retirement, Chuck could be found at the foundry almost daily.
