Charlie was born on April 15, 1972, in Morehead City, North Carolina. His outgoing and fun personality meant that he never met a stranger. He was a skilled carpenter and could do most anything on a jobsite. Playing the guitar and singing were his favorite pastimes. He also loved to cook, especially good down home country cooking and many have benefitted from his delicious meals. In his younger years, Charlie enjoyed spending time on the waves surfing and always enjoyed going fishing. More than anything though, his family meant the world to him.

He is survived by his wife, Kim Nelson of Hubert; father, Charles Nelson III of Morehead City; mother, Diane Hutto and husband Timothy of Rocky Point; sons, Charles Leslie Nelson and Spencer Paul Nelson, both of Hubert; sister, Heather Beard and husband Mike of Wilmington; brother, Johnathan Morris Nelson and wife Amanda of Beaufort; and nieces and nephews, Carman, Noah, Azlyn, and Johnathan Jr.
