Charles E. Yergeau, 64 of Choctaw, Okla., formerly of Vermont, passed
peacefully into the arms of the Lord on Wednesday, April 17.
Chuck’s
greatest gift was his ability to love. His highest priority in life
was to extend his love to those around him. He sacrificed many things
in his own life so that he could care for those he loved. Besides his
own large and loving family, Chuck gave love, guidance and shelter to
many others without reservation.
Chuck
spent his life in building maintenance. If it could be taken apart,
repaired and put back together, it was in Chuck’s realm.
Chuck’s
wife of 35 years, Barbara, describes Chuck as always having a smile
on his face, no matter what, and says the life they spent together
were the most wonderful years of her life.
Chuck
leaves his wife, Barbara; sons Christopher, Scott, Robert, Jay,
David, and Mathew; and daughters
Cruzita, Crystal, Mary, Denise and Jessica; 16 grandchildren; and
extended family. Chuck is predeceased by father, Gerald; his mother,
Mary; and brothers Jerry and Neil. He is survived by brothers David
and Allen, both of Vermont.
Services
will be held at a later date.
“And
in the end, the love you take, is equal to the love you make.”
