Charles met his wife Beverleigh (Shanks) Morgan of 66 years in Saint John NB and together they raised their four children Richard, Timmy, Shelley, Brenton and their granddaughter Jana as one of their own.
Charles enjoyed life, he loved his family especially his two dogs Leelah, and Sophie. In his downtime, he enjoyed hunting and fishing. In his younger years, he coached the broomball team NBTel. He could light up a room with his presence and could tell a good Newfie joke.
