Chuck enjoyed a long career at Algoma Steel where he served as the Chairman of the Health and Safety Committee of the United Steelworkers of America. He was instrumental in implementing the Health and Safety Program for Steelworkers worldwide, that influenced the Health & Safety Act that we all follow today. He was also an avid sports enthusiast and a member of the Sault Ste. Marie Hockey Hall of Fame. He will be fondly remembered for his friendly and outgoing personality and could start up a conversation with anyone.
