A reserved quiet man, his greatest joy in life was his family. Charles was a devoted father to his only child, his daughter Cheryl (Wayne) Libich.

Charles is predeceased by his parents Peter and Mary Yushchyshyn; his first wife Shirley (1989) and second wife Finella (2016); brothers Victor and Oscar; sister Diane (Tony) Hawryluk and brother-in-law Bob White.
A Celebration of Life to honor Charles’ life will be held on Friday, February 28, 2025 at 10:30 a.m. at the Vegreville Social Centre (4802 47A St) with Pastor Doug Hale officiating.
