Charles “Chuck” Arthur Collmer of Pascagoula, MS, passed away on January 15, 2021 at the age of 66 after a hard-fought battle with COVID-19. Chuck was born in New Orleans, LA, to parents Charles and Leonie Collmer. He had two sisters, Noel Collmer Smith and Susan Collmer Spratley. After spending most of his childhood growing up in Pascagoula, he graduated from Pascagoula High School in 1972.

After graduation, he began his career as an Accounting Manager at First Chemical Corporation, where he remained until he retired. In 1982, he met Rosemary Collmer. They wed in 1987 and went on to have their only child, Warren Collmer. Chuck loved listening to live music, watching the Saints and the Braves, and spending time with family and friends. More than anything, he loved being a father and grandfather.
