...

Charles Morris Thacker "Chuck" age 91 of Noel, Missouri passed into eternal rest on June 1, 2022 in Joplin, MO after an illness.

Charles was born July 13, 1930 in Galena, KS to William W. Thacker and Inez M. (Leach) Thacker. He moved to Seneca, MO in 1969, then to Noel, MO in 1990.

He served a short term in the Air Force in 1946 before marrying Shirley Collins in 1950. He was the owner and operator of body shops and towing services in Oklahoma, California, and Missouri. He enjoyed working on cars and spending time with loved ones and good friends. He took pride in teaching his son and grandchildren his trade.

We rejoice that our grandfather is at rest in the arms of Jesus. (He asked life of thee, and thou gavest it him, even length of days for ever and ever. Psalms 21:4)
