Moyer, Charles G. ("Chief", Chuck, Charlie), longtime Phoenix resident and retired Police Chief, passed away peacefully December 16, 2015 at his home in Phoenix, NY. He was 84.
Chuck was born and raised in Phoenix and served the people of the village as Assistant Police Chief for 7 years (1954-1961) and Chief of Police for 27 years (1961-1988). An active member of the Phoenix Fire Department for 62 years, he spent his life in the service of the people of Phoenix and his country. Chuck served in the United States Army as a Military Policeman and was an Eagle Scout.
Chief Moyer was also a member of the New York State Association of Chiefs of Police, where he held the title of Sergeant of Arms for many years. His humor, authority and friendliness guided many young people to grow up to become good, responsible citizens. In his free time, Chuck enjoyed his family and was an avid outdoorsman who loved to hunt and fish.
For the past 25 years he could also be found each August at The NYS Fair greeting friends and fairgoers alike at Gate #1 (or nearby). Charlie never met a joke he didn't like and never missed an opportunity to share a humorous tale or two!
He is survived by his wife of 61 years Maxine Moyer (Lowe) and his four children: Debbie (Ted) Czeck of Fulton, NY; Scott (Dawn) Moyer of Pennellville, NY; Kristine (Adam) Schroeder of Valrico, FL; and Michelle (Mike) Kinabrew of Killeen, TX and 5 grandchildren: CJ, John, Kayleigh, Michael and Kaylee.
The family asks that any donations be made to Enterprise Fire Company #1, 457 Main Street, Phoenix, NY 13135 or to the Phoenix Community and Youth Council "Bridge House Brats" 455 Main Street Phoenix, NY 13135.
A celebration honoring Chuck's life is being planned for Memorial Day Weekend 2016.
Services will be held May 28th 10am-12pm at the Phoenix Fire Hall, in Phoenix, NY.
