Obituary: Charles (Chuck) Warren Hunsberger


Charles (Chuck) Warren Hunsberger passed away of complications from Multiple Systems Atrophy at age 88 on November 7, 2026. Chuck was a beloved husband, father, grandfather and friend. To the last he was charming all those who met and cared for him.

Chuck was born in Neptune, New Jersey, on October 11, 1938, the youngest son of Ruth (Combes) & Charles Hunsberger. He spent most of his childhood and teen years in Levittown, Pennsylvania before serving in the Navy and eventually moving to Denver, Colorado, where he met and married his wife of 52 years, Katy. Chuck owned his own business working with precision scales and balances before retiring and devoting his time to working in his woodshop crafting beautiful bespoke bowls, plates, lamps, and other works of art. He was happiest turning at the lathe and passing his woodworking knowledge on to his children and grandchildren. Faith was important to him, and until his final illness intervened, Chuck was an active member of his church. Even once he was housebound, he continued meeting with his menโ€™s Bible study, looking forward to their time together on Friday mornings. All those who knew Chuck will remember him for his ready laugh, his hospitality, his charming wit, and his enduring love of ice cream.ย 

Chuck is survived by his wife, Mary Kathleen (Katy) Hunsberger, his children, Rebecca, John (& Courtney), and Molly Hunsberger, and four grandsons Cade, Jack, Rex, and Cole. He was preceded in death by his parents Ruth and Charles, and siblings, John, Bev, and Edwin. 

Due to family circumstances, there are no plans for a celebration of life at this time. We are confident that Chuck is at rest with Jesus, and we look forward to the day that we will be together once more.
