With great sadness, we announce the passing of Charles Joseph DiSalvo on October 17, 2024, at 82. Charles was born on July 29, 1942, in Rochester, New York.
Charles became a master gunsmith and an award-winning sharpshooter. He was also an accomplished collector of auto mechanic tools, tropical fish, and collectible model trains. Generations of family pets filled his day with affection and loyalty, especially his dogs.
Charles, in his characteristic dignity and strength, passed on with love for those who came before him. He had a simple request – no memorial services. His family kindly asks you to remember a fond memory of Charles that brings you a smile.
