Obituary For Charles Fredrick Mudgett

Services for Charles “Charlie” “Chuck” “Chas” Fredrick Mudgett, 59, of Denison, will be held on Sunday, September 18, 2022, at 3:00 PM in the Dannel Funeral Home Chapel in Sherman, Texas. Chris Vickrey will officiate. The family will greet friends one hour prior to the service. Charlie passed away on Monday, September 12, at his home.

Charlie was born in Bethlehem, Pennsylvania, on July 1, 1963, to Donald and Sally Sherman Mudgett. He was one of nine children: Steve, Roger, Debbie, Troy, Todd, Ted, Dara, and Lydia. Charlie was raised in Northbrook, Illinois, eventually moved to Texas and then graduated from Sherman High School in 1982. He went to school to study construction management and graduated from Waco Tech. Charlie then began his career in construction in Sherman and the surrounding areas. He married Michelle Vick and they had two sons, Keaton and Jordan. Charlie remarried in 2000 to Shannon Blizard and they gained a daughter, Jennings, and had a daughter, Amber.

Charlie was an extremely hard-working man. He loved his family and spent as much time as possible with his children and grandchildren. He loved music and played his guitar every night! He was always able to express himself through his music. Charlie was never judgmental towards anyone, no matter how different they were in the world, he remained an advocate to everyone he met. He was always an optimist no matter the situation. Charlie knew that his family was not limited by blood. He was always compassionate and inclusive and was a great listener. Charlie had wisdom. He was a very good carpenter and an even better person. He could build a house from the ground up and everything in between. Charlie will be greatly missed in this world and by everyone who knew him.

Charlie was preceded in death by his parents, sister Lydia, and brother Ted Payne. He is survived by his wife of 22 years, Shannon; two sons: Keaton Mudgett of Austin, and Jordan Mudgett of Sherman; two daughters: Jennings Blevins of Denison and Amber Mudgett of Denison; two grandchildren: Chloie Davis and Gabriel Davis; four brothers: Steve Mudgett of The Colony, Texas, Roger Mudgett of Sherman, Troy Mudgett and wife Tracy of Highlands Ranch, Colorado, and Todd Mudgett and wife Lisa of North Carolina; two sisters: Debbie Coolidge of Savannah, Georgia, and Dara Dooley of Dallas, adopted brother, Thomas Mitchum of Savannah, Georgia; many nieces, nephews, aunts, uncles, and cousins.
