He was the kind of man that loved his family. He gave endlessly and never hesitated to help anyone in need. He would give the shirt off his back, his last dollar, or his time without ever expecting anything in return. That was simply who he was.
For over 50 beautiful years, Chuck shared his life with his beloved wife Susan Renner, a love built on devotion, partnership, laughter, and unwavering commitment. Together they built a family rooted in love, strength, and togetherness. Their bond was one of true love, and it showed in everything they did.
Chuck was devoted to his family their two children, Jennifer Ferris of Sterling and Clint Renner of Tampico, Illinois.
Being a grandfather was one of Chuck’s greatest joys. He loved and cherished his grandchildren with his whole heart: Linsey (Michael) Hepker of Sterling, Illinois; Madyson (Adam) Brown of Streator, Illinois; Baylei (Brian) Cebula of Sterling, Illinois, and Colin Renner (Baisey Walker), of Tampico Illinois. His pride in them was unmistakable, and his love for them was endless.
His purest joy was for his great-grandchildren. He leaves behind his precious great-grandchildren: Reighlyn Hepker, Bentley Hepker, Sydney Cebula, Bronson Cebula, Huckson Flosi, Kayson Cebula, and Rowyn Brown who will grow up hearing stories of the incredible man whose love surrounds them still.
He leaves behind countless friends, extended family members, and loved ones who were blessed to know him.
Though our hearts ache and the loss feels unbearable, Chuck’s legacy is written in the lives he touched, the love he gave so freely, and the family he held together. He will be missed more than words can express and loved for eternity.
He is preceded in death by his wife Susan Renner; his mother Geraldine Snow; his father Frank Renner; his daughter Diana Renner; his sister Ruth “Ginger” Adams, and his nephew Terry Adams.
A celebration of life will be scheduled for a future date.
