Charles ‘Chuck’ Anderson
April 30, 1954- March 10, 2022

On Thursday March 10, 2022, Chuck Anderson, a loving father, grandfather, and dogfather, passed away unexpectedly at the young age of 67. Chuck was a lifelong Eureka resident who discovered a passion for baseball after joining the Sons of Italy team at Jacob Haney Ballpark.

Chuck gave back to his baseball community by volunteering his time maintaining and preparing the Jacob Haney Baseball Field. His love was not solely for baseball, but also fishing, hunting, cribbage, speeding on his motorcycle, friends, enjoying life to its fullest and most importantly, his family. If Chuck wasn’t coaching or working on his house, he was ‘gone fishing or hunting’.

Chuck was preceded in death by his parents J. Walter and Esther, and his siblings Bob, Joanne, and Jeanette. Chucks legacy will continue to live through his two children; Nikole (Jim) and Bryan (Jessica), five grandchildren; Jamisyn, Bryson, Jaelynn, Ayden, and Mason, sister Judy, eight nieces and nephews, 16 great nieces and nephews, and five great great nieces and nephews.

In lieu of flowers a GoFundMe page has been created to fund a plaque in honor of Chuck that will be placed at the Jacob Haney Field. The page is called “an honor for Chuck Anderson” by Nikole Albin. Funds will also be donated to help reconstruct their original bleachers and building. Chuck’s love of baseball will continue to live on forever in the heart of where it started.

A celebration of life will be held at the Tishnon Village Community Center at Bear River, 266 Keisner in Loleta on April 30 from 1 to 3 p.m.
