Charles was born in Diagonal, Iowa, the youngest son of Eljay and Mary Jane Carver Hathaway. He attended school in Patterson, Iowa, and at the age of 18 he joined the Army, serving some of his time in Korea. On Dec. 14, 1968, Charles married DeEtte Vankirk in Minnesota and adopted her children, Michael and Tammi. They divorced in 1978. Charles lived in Minnesota and California before settling in Phoenix, Ariz., several years ago.
He is survived by two sisters; Althea Housman and Sylvia Peterson, both of Winterset.
He was preceded in death by his parents; three brothers: Harold Hathaway, Bob Hathaway and Harlan in infancy; and six sisters: Isobel Griswold, Ruth Evans, Edith Posh, Rose Stuart, Flo Terry and Patricia Murphy.
The body was cremated and returned to Iowa, where a private service will be held at a later date.
