Chuck was born April 3, 1926, in Hanover, Illinois, the son of C. Elston and Maude (Bessie) Campbell) Nobis.

Chuck then returned to continue running the family farm in rural Hanover. On July 9, 1955, Chuck and Mary Atchison were the first couple married by Pastor Henry Grishkowsky at the Lutheran Church in Hanover. He was a lifelong member of the Elks Club as well as a school bus driver at Hanover and River Ridge for many years. You could always count on his genuine smile and friendly personality, not to mention his storytelling and memory for details. He enjoyed visiting and joking around, keeping watch over his canine companion,Copper, and “resting his eyes” to old Westerns and sports programs. He loved home-cooked dinners with family and friends and made sure no one ever went away hungry.
Chuck is survived by his three children, Linda Nobis of Hanover, Randy (Susan) Nobis of Warren, and James (Deborah) Nobis of Hanover; and seven grandchildren, Zach Nobis-Olson, Jasmine Nobis-Olson, Shannon Hoppe, Charles Nobis Jr., MarySue Nobis, Amanda Nobis, and Jamie Nobis. Chuck was preceded in death by both parents, an infant sibling and his wife.
Chuck and his family extend their thanks to all the medical staff at Midwest Medical Center and Mercy Hospital, Medical Associates,Galena and Dubuque ,and Hospice of Dubuque. He especially appreciated all of the special nurses and aides who not only cared for him, but cared about him.
