Chuck was part of the first graduating Class of Cedar Catholic High School in 1964.  He soon married his high school sweetheart, the love of his life, Janet Heine, on September 16, 1967 in Bow Valley, Nebraska and were blessed with 5 children.  Together, they raised livestock, grew crops, and milked cows for many years until they moved into Hartington in 2010.  Chuck was a member of Holy Trinity Catholic Church and held an hour of adoration with his wife, Janet, for over 40 years. He was part of the P&E softball team and the Thursday night men’s bowling league in his younger years.  Together, they loved the lifelong friendships they made in their 2 card clubs. He was a former member of CCHS school board, Knights of Columbus, Holy Trinity Finance Committee, CCHS Booster Club and the Cedar Catholic Blue Ribbon Development.  He enjoyed fishing on rainy days away from the farm, playing cards with family and friends, watching his grandchildren in numerous sports and activities, but really loved dancing with Janet.  Sadly, Janet died on January 27, 2019 at the age of 71 years. Chuck is survived by his four children Amy (Terry) Kathol of Lincoln, Todd Albers & Stacy Pedersen of Hartington, Russ (Brooke) Albers of Hartington, Becky (Matt) Jones of Wayne, NE; 12 grandchildren; two sisters Mary Ellen Walker of Duck, NC, Margaret “Midge” Johnson of Volin, SD; many nieces and nephews.
