Charles W. Kaufman

Charles Wesley Kaufman, Jr. better known as Grandpa Chuck and Chucky Love, passed away unexpectedly on October 2, 2016.

He was born October 29, 1956, in Cleveland, Ohio.

Chuck had a ready smile, and loved life, especially his Harley and his beautiful grandchildren. His untimely passing has left a gaping hole in the lives of many.

He is survived by his mother, Norma Prekler; his children, Kelley-Jo (Jonathon) Godbold and Charles Wesley (Shannon) Kaufman III; his grandchildren, Landon, Ashlyn, Harper, and Lola, who were the light of his life, as well as many sisters, brothers, aunts, uncles, cousins, nieces, nephews and friends.

He was preceded in death by many, but most importantly by his father, best friend, and partner, Charles Wesley Kaufman, Sr., whom he mourned for the duration of his life.

A funeral was never his style; instead, a celebration of life event will be held on Friday, October 14, 2016 from 5:00-8:00 pm at the Chardon VFW Post, 752 Water St, Chardon, Ohio 44024. Motorcycles welcome, and encouraged.

Arrangements entrusted to Davis-Babcock Funeral Home, Willoughby.
