Charles Marvin "Chuck" Myers, 83, of Pensacola, FL passed away on Friday, February 27, 2015. Chuck was born in Topeka, KS and graduated from Washburn Rural High School in 1950. He then enlisted in the United States Marine Corp. While on a trip to Myrtle Beach, SC over July 4th, 1953, he met Barbara Fisher. The two were married Christmas Eve, 1953. After an injury prevented him from participating in the Korean War, he was honorably discharged and started working for the United States Civil Service at the Topeka Air Force Depot as a CP-1. In 1955, the couple welcomed a son, Clyde Joseph. When the Topeka depot was closed in 1958, he was transferred to Brookley Air Force Base in Mobile, AL. While in Alabama, he learned all the great fishing spots. The couple was quick to point out that they would stop to buy shrimp for bait; and whatever they didn't use, they would take home and eat. In 1961, the couple was transferred again; this time to Wright-Patterson Air Force Base in Dayton, OH. When they left Mobile, the temperature was 67 degrees and upon arriving in Dayton, the temperature was -7 below zero. The famous quote here was, "Don't unpack Barbara Ann, we are going back to Mobile". In 1963, the couple welcomed their second son, Christopher John. While at Wright-Patterson, Mr. Myers was a major contributor to the design and development of several major computer systems. Although updated to current technology, many of these systems are still in use today. His awards include 2 Air Force Meritorious Civilian Service Awards, AFLC Civilian of the Year (Comptroller) Award, Silver Zero Defects award and many Superior performance citations. In 1969, close friend Jack Watts introduced Mr. Myers to the world of square dancing. At this time, he started studying how to be a square dance caller. Soon, square dancing would become the second love of his life. Over the next 30 years, the couple would create and maintain countless friendships all over the country. No matter where he was, he would always take the time to help anybody who didn't understand the calls. After retirement from Civil Service in 1988, the couple would return to Daphne, AL (see quote from 1961). He then continued to make new friends in the square dance community as well as the fishing community. Fishing for Speckled Trout would become his third love. He would fish everyday, regardless of the weather unless the wind was too strong. He would say of these times, "The wind blew us off the water!" He was always willing to take anybody fishing and show them the ropes. The United States Marine Corp has always been in his heart and he celebrated the Marine Corp Birthday religiously. Maybe now he can show Chesty Puller how to catch speckled trout. Chuck is preceded in death by his father, Charles Joseph; his mother, Lola Marguerite and his son, Clyde Joseph. He is survived by loving wife, Barbara of Pensacola, FL; son, Christopher and his wife Susan of Cantonment, FL.; sister, Charita and her husband Gary of Topeka, KS; brother, Brandon and his wife Beth of Auburn, KS; daughter-in-law, Kaye of Daphne, AL. and grandchildren, Courtney, Matthew, Cameron and Ryan; as well as 4 great grandchildren. A Celebration of Life ceremony will be held Thursday, March 5, 2015, 12:00 P.M. (Noon) at Harper-Morris Memorial Chapel, 2276 Airport Blvd, Pensacola, FL 32504. Final resting will be at Barrancas National Cemetery aboard NAS Pensacola. In lieu of flowers, please make a contribution to the Wounded Warrior Project www.woundedwarriorproject.org
