a corporate pilot, at one time flying Lear Jets for Burger Chef. Wanting to pursue his education,

professional people in the art and skill of flying and maintaining their personal airplanes.
In addition to flying, Chuck had a tremendous passion for life and was very active and involved in
a number of activities. He was a former state champion in archery and was previously active in
the Indianapolis Flycasters Association. He enjoyed reading, running, snow skiing, hiking,
hunting, fishing, and playing jazz on his trumpet. He was a member of the National Ski Patrol
and patrolled at Ski World in Nashville, Ind., then transferred to Perfect North Slopes in
Lawrenceburg. He won several local and regional service awards for his contributions and
commitment while a member of both patrols. After becoming involved with ski patrol and always
wanting to further his education, he earned an Emergency Medical Technician certificate.
Chuck is survived by two children: Shayne (Edward Mamenta) Huff of Brookline, Maine and
Tony (Miki) Huff of Boise, Idaho; four grandsons: Kenji, Ethan, Seji, and Yuji; mother, Llana Huff
of Indianapolis; two brothers: Curtis (Carol) Huff of Fishers and Carter (Sharon) Huff of
