Chuck was born January 9, 1950 in Olney to the late Dorothy Louise (Bailey) Nicholson and Earl Ray Nicholson. He graduated from Graham High School and worked in the oilfield most of his life. He married Sammie Moreland June 16, 1973 in Graham. Chuck was an active member of First Baptist Church Graham.

Chuck loved his family. He loved going on family vacations every summer and playing nightly 42 games. He loved his church. He was an active deacon and volunteered wherever he could. His faith in God was the foundation of who he was and he lived that faith daily through kindness, generosity, and service to others.

Though our hearts ache at his passing, we find comfort knowing that he is at peace and resting in the presence of the Lord he loved and served so faithfully. We can only imagine him hearing the words, “Well done, good and faithful servant”.
