A proud veteran, Chuck served honorably in the Army, embodying dedication and service. In 1972, he purchased Wisconsin Shower Door & Supply Corp, which he owned and operated until 2015. Through hard work, teaching others, and a clear vision, Chuck grew the company into a leading custom glass fabricator and distributor in Southeast Wisconsin, leaving a lasting legacy in the industry.

 

A lover of the outdoors, and spending time up north in Three Lakes or Rome with family and friends.
