- "LAST OF THE HK3"
On September 8, 2017, Uncle Chuck passed away in University Place WA at the age of 97, the last of the "Hough Kids Three" as Louis, Bill, and Chuck were known to family and friends.
Shortly after graduation from Auburn High School in the late 1930's, Chuck began his railroad career with the NPRR. On 30 September 1940, realizing that war was eminent, Chuck enlisted in the US Navy. He served as a Seabee on the USS Acorn out of Port Hueneme, California. While stationed there, Chuck met and married Irene Adrienne Newton November 9, 1945 in Pasadena, California.
After his discharge from the Navy, Chuck resumed his career with the NPRR in Washington State. During his tenure with the railroad, he worked as brakeman, conductor, and lobbyist in Olympia for the railroad trainmen. Besides his work with the railroad, Uncle Chuck served as an Auburn city councilman, and belonged to the Masons, Shriners,Elks, and Eagles fraternal organizations.
Throughout his work years and his retirement from the railroad (in the 1980's), Chuck continued to enjoy his hobbies of gardening, woodworking, and boating. He also maintained his involvement in the retired railroad employees association and the Presbyterian church.
