Charles Louis Murphy

February 15, 1945 — December 26, 2022

Charles (“Chuck”) Louis Murphy, 77, of Charleston, SC passed away on December 26, 2022 in Columbus, OH.  He was born in Cincinnati on February 15, 1945 and graduated from Oak Hills High School.  He served in the Navy for 4 years and graduated from The Ohio State University.  Chuck retired after 35 years from Frigidaire/Electrolux. He lived in Cincinnati, OH, Patuxent River Naval Air Station (MD), Westerville, OH, Pittsburgh, PA, London, OH, New Bern, NC, and Charleston SC.  Chuck was an avid reader; he would read the newspaper every day and had a wide interest in books.  He loved animals and was a founding board member of the Madison County (Ohio) Humane Society and adopted many cats and dogs over his lifetime, including his favorites Shar and Shadow. Chuck enjoyed spending time with his family and golfing, fishing, and watching sports – most of all the Buckeyes football team.
