Charles A. Whetten

Charles A. Whetten entered eternal life on Friday, September 27, 2013 after a long battle with cancer. He was born December 8, 1929 in Colonia Juarez, Mexico to Charles William Whetten and Ivy Tietjen. Charlie was known for his undying love for his most beloved wife Rose. Now he is rejoicing that love with her once again.

One of his most beloved things beside his children and grandchildren was his love of playing his guitar and singing. His “Over the Hill” band was his love and playing for area homes. This brought him great joy. He was immediately loved by all who had the chance to meet him. The most important thing to him was his family. He leaves them with a great example of kindness and understanding for all. He never spoke any unkind words to anyone and he was always serving someone in need. He was faithful member of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter Day Saints.

He loved his country and all those that served it.

He is survived by one son, Eddie Whetten of Silver City; three daughters, Charlene Rosati and husband Otto of Silver City; Rosie L. Whetten of Silver City; Carolyn Richardson and husband Dave of Silver City; eleven grandchildren; twenty-three great grandchildren; one sister, Frieda Thayne of Salt Lake City, UT; sister-in-law, Emma Ernestine Shaffer of Bisbee, AZ; special cousin, Wesley Shupe; numerous nieces and nephews.
