Charles Otto Naitzke was born February 20, 1937 in Toledo Ohio to Otto and Anna Naitzke. After graduating from Macomber High School, Charles went on to join the Ohio Air National Guard and work as an AT&T pole technician for over 40 years. Charles' work with the Phone Company and love of the outdoors took him all over the United States, providing tall tales and fond memories he shared with family and friends for years after.
Charles is survived by his daughters, Deborah (Pat) Gagne and Darlene (Joe) Morse; grandchildren, Justin (Stephanie) Pfeifer, Jason (Christina) Pfeifer, and Jenna Pfeifer; great-grandchildren, Joseph, Charlotte, Felicity, and Victoria; and numerous friends and neighbors. Charles is preceded in death by his late wife, Elizabeth; and parents, Otto and Anna.
Charles' family and his beloved pup, Daisy will miss his daily stories and his never met a stranger mentality. The family will be holding a private memorial ceremony at a later date.
