He was born on October 23rd, 1944 in Fairfield, Iowa to Glenn Cy and Florence Adeline (WITTMER) DICKINSON. Chuck graduated from Fairfield High School in 1964 and after graduating he worked at the post office and Iowa Ordinanace Plant.

Fast forward to 1970, he left Fairfield to pursue an acting career in Hollywood, California. Obviously, that never came to fruition, however, he did become a star in the eyes of Dianna BROWN from Burlington, Iowa.

This is through James Robinson's life Ministry's.

Chuck loved his family and left us many fond memories. One being, in 1989 he and his daughter Ashly were baptized together at First Baptist Church in Camarillo where we are celebrating his life. He was a wonderful father and Papa. He loved being outdoors whether working in his garden or sitting in his chair admiring his freshly cut lawn. He took pride in everything he did. His number one love all is life (sic) was sports. Just bring up any sport and you have his attention especially his RAMS. He will be deeply missed!
