Charles Shimkus Sr. Obituary
We are sad to announce that on October 22, 2021 we had to say goodbye to Charles Shimkus Sr. of West Hartford, Connecticut. You can send your sympathy in the guestbook provided and share it with the family.
He was loved and cherished by many people including: his parents, Salome Dilion Shimkus and Charles Martin Shimkus; his wife Patricia Royer Shimkus; his sisters, Sally Kirkutis and Mary Stephania Conrad; his children, Chuck Shimkus (Dana), Mary Beth Murphy (Tom) and Susan Lemkuil (Dave); his grandchildren, Danielle Shimkus, Luke Murphy, Trisha Van Doren (Carl), Abby Shimkus, Mary Shimkus, Charlie Shimkus, Andrew Lemkuil, Austin Lemkuil and Emily Lemkuil; and his great grandchild Ruby Van Doren. He was also cherished by many nieces and nephews.
It took a worldwide pandemic to finally convince Charlie to retire.
In lieu of flowers, memorial donations may be made to the CT Brain Tumor Alliance at ctbta.org or to Holy Trinity R.C. Church at 53 Capitol Avenue in Hartford, CT 06106.
