Memorial contributions benefit the Marshall County Animal Shelter

Charles L. “Chuck” Merryman, 81, of Shadyside, Ohio passed away on Saturday, April 24, 2021. He was a resident of Park Health in St. Clairsville, Ohio, where he was well-taken care of by the talented and doting staff. He remained active and happy while there.

Chuck was an outdoorsman at heart, and loved to hunt and especially fish in the rivers and lakes of Ohio, New York, Virginia and Canada. He was a long-time fixture in the Dairy Bar and Tiger Pub in Shadyside, Ohio. His many hobbies included reading, making lures, winemaking, carpentry, gardening, watching the Penguins, and NASCAR. Chuck loved cooking chickens, going to “The Strip,” and making sausage with his friends. There was very little he couldn’t craft or fix.

Chuck attended Ohio University and The University of Dayton. He was a retired school teacher in the Buckeye Local school district, where he worked for 30+ years as an Industrial Arts teacher in woods, metals, drafting, welding, and foundry. Thousands of students benefited from his passion, knowledge, and drive, and he loved what he did. Chuck also worked as a temp. during the summers for Air Products and Signode as a welder and mechanic.

His family wishes to thank you in advance for your kindness and support during this difficult time.

They ask that any memorial contributions benefit the Marshall County Animal Shelter.
