Chuck Vernon Prill Jr.'s Obituary
Chuck V. Prill, age 61 of Mecosta, passed away Sunday, September 18, 2016 at home surrounded by family. A celebration of Chuck's life will be held Saturday October 1st from 1:00 PM to 5:00 PM at his home in Mecosta (386 S. Cass St., Mecosta, MI 49332).
Chuck was born November 15, 1954, the son of Charles and Sally (Croschere) Prill. He enjoyed gardening, landscaping and simply being outdoors. He was a great builder and delighted in all sorts of projects from remodeling to building sheds and everything in-between. He would often help his children with their home improvements as well as doing his own. Chuck always considered himself to be "old school", valuing family time (especially with grandchildren) and having a strong work ethic.
Friendly with a crooked sense of humor could describe Chuck in a nutshell. He had many people come to him when they needed to talk about something since he always had an ear to lend.
He will be greatly missed by his wife, Monica Prill; mother, Sally Drake; children, Jennifer (Richie) Vorhees, Joshua (Courtney) Prill, Jesse (Amanda) Prill, James (Shannon) Prill, Jason Prill (Kristy), Justin Prill and Julian Prill; siblings, Debra Scherbinski, Dawn Duley, Donald Drake and Jenny Clemmons and 16 grandchildren.
Chuck was preceded in death by his father and sister Lynn Kilts.
