Charles J. Christianson, age 89, of Larsen died Sunday, September 24, 2017, at Living Tree Estates in Greenville. Charlie was born on September 28, 1927, the son of Wallace and Edna (Anderson) Christianson. After graduating from Neenah High School he started working at Kimberly-Clark Lakeview Mill and retired in 1987. On June 21, 1961, Charlie married Wilma (Gore) Christianson; they were married for 48 years. He enjoyed bowling, deer hunting, watching the Packers, and most of all traveling and taking "road trips". Charlie loved to visit South Dakota. As a family we took numerous trips to see: The Corn Palace, Wall Drug, The Badlands, The Black Hills, Mount Rushmore, and Yellowstone National Park. He was a lifelong member of Grace Lutheran Church in Winchester.
Charlie is survived by his sons, John (Patti), and Michael (Amy Jo); five grandchildren, Angela, Bryan, Heather, Lettie (special friend, James), and Hans (special friend, Brooklyn). He is also survived by daughters-in-law, Kathie Christianson and Brenda Christianson; and a sister-in-law, Margot Christianson.
Charlie was preceded in death by his wife Wilma on December 9, 2009; a son Lee on September 19, 2016; one brother, Emory Christianson; and two sisters and brothers-in-law, June and Kenneth Julius, Lorraine and Leo Anderson.
A visitation for the family and friends will be on Sunday, October 1, 2017, from 2:00 to 4:00 p.m. at Grace Lutheran Church of Winchester, 8396 Steeple Hill Dr. Larsen.

My deepest sympathy. Still remember that lovely chicken meal you sent over to us when Willard was sick. Hope all is well.

My Mom is a resident at Living Tree. I enjoyed talking to Charlie when I visited my Mom. He was always so friendly and quite a character when he rolled down the halls playing his kazoo! He is missed here but safe with his Lord Jesus....and probably playing a kazoo again.
