Charles (Charlie) was born in Passaic NJ on October 19th 1961 to Ruth Bennett and Charles Astorino, their third child together. He joined the US Air Force at 18. He continued working in the banking and computer business throughout life. He loved basketball and could quickly answer any question ever asked about the NBA or the Hobbit Lord of the Rings world. Charlie loved long drives to the mountains the beach, trips to Vegas with his brother and friends. His dislike for spiders was well known.
He was an amazing caring brother who always had a way to calmly inspire and brighten your day.. "Grandpa" to Brodi, uncle to Brooklyn. Son& grandson to his late beloved Grandpa Sepich and Grandpa Astorino, nephew, cousin, friend. He will never be forgotten, and life for us who go on without him will never be the same.
