CHARLES DEWAYNE MATTIS "Chuck" was born April 14, 1949 at Dickinson, ND to Arthur and Olga (Lutz) Mattis. He attended school in Reeder. Following his schooling, he began working for Earl and Zola Hagen on September 20, 1967 in their farming and ranching operation.
Charles continued working for them for over 44 years as a farm hand. He loved the farming and ranching style of life.
He enjoyed fishing and spending time at Shadehill Reservoir south of Lemmon, and spending time with his special friend of 25 years, Ardis Lepinske. He also enjoyed playing pool on the weekends at the Midway in Hettinger. He always grew a large garden and loved to be outdoors and driving around town. He looked forward to spending time with family on the holidays at Bev and Gene's house, especially the 4th of July and all of its activities.
He will be missed by all.
