July 26, 1978 ~ December 11, 2024
Charles Edward Eldridge III, passed away peacefully Dec. 11, 2024. He was born July 26, 1978, in Temple, Texas, the son of Charles Jr. and Deborah (Lambert) Eldridge.
Chuck was a positive, kind and independent individual despite the physical disabilities he was born with. Sitting in a wheelchair didn’t prevent him from living a full, adventurous life. He enjoyed fishing, going to the beach and hanging out with friends. He was an avid gamer and had many online friends who knew him as a brother, uncle, dad and caring listener. Chuck inspired many people with his positive attitude and encouraging words. He faced many physical challenges, many surgeries, back pain and infections...these were just something to deal with for him. Chuck was a “Warrior” in the sense that he didn’t give up on life and did the best he could.
Chuck is survived by his mother, Deborah Eldridge; and sister, Catie; many aunts, uncles and cousins in a large extended family.
Chuck is preceded in death by his grandparents, Charles and Phyllis (Hart) Eldridge, Dave and Mary (Kludy) Lambert; and his father, Charles E. Eldridge, Jr.
