Charles Dean Kammerzell, 65, lifelong area resident, died Saturday, August 27, 2016 from pancreatic cancer. He was a resident at the Porter Hospice in Centennial, Colorado at the time of his death.

Chuck was born August 25, 1951 in Fort Morgan to Henry and Mildred (Ulrich) Kammerzell.

Chuck graduated from Wiggins High School and attended CSU and MCC.

Although he was a farmer for most of his life, he worked for CDOT for the past several years. He always enjoyed gardening, and his job keeping the grounds at the rest area in Wiggins allowed him to share his brand of beauty with the community as well as those just passing through. He had an inquisitive nature, unique sense of humor, and an easy smile that made people want to share their stories with him. He was a lifetime member of the Wiggins Community Church.

Chuck is survived by his significant other, Rozzy Perez, of Fort Morgan, three daughters, Lisa Minear and husband Toby of Fort Morgan, Amy Kammerzell of Hartsel, Colorado, Erin Hagan and husband Jeremy of Littleton, Colorado, and one son, Pete Kammerzell of Wiggins, one brother, Arnold Kammerzell and wife Sue of Wiggins, two aunts, Emma Goodner of LaSalle and Ruth Kammerzell of Greeley, grandchildren, Cody Harding, Mark Harding, Josh Harding, Gavin Hiltz, Connor Hiltz, Emerson Hagan, and Grant Hagan, nephew, Jeff Kammerzell and wife Amy, great nieces, June and Hazel Kammerzell, and many cousins.
