COLLICUTT
On Monday, Dec. 11, 2000, Charles Caryl "Charlie" Collicutt died peacefully in his home at 604 S. Main St. in Kernersville. In death, he joins his beloved wife, Elizabeth Stafford "Liddy" Collicutt and his wonderful and dedicated daughter, Cathy. In the company and care of family and friends and through the diligent efforts of Hospice and others, he was able to maintain a dignified and meaningful lifestyle until the very end of his life of 77 years. For this we are grateful. Charlie was born in the small farming and mining community of Mineral Point, Wis., on Easter Sunday, April 1, 1923. His proud parents, Harry Van and Esther Bennett Collicutt along with his sister, Betty, then resided in nearby South Wayne, Wis. He began his education in South Wayne schools and graduated from high school there in 1940. His education continued at the Platteville Mining School in Platteville, Wis., where he studied mining engineering for two years. Like so many young men and women at that time, Charlie's education was interrupted by the outbreak of World War II. His strong sense of patriotism compelled Charlie to enlist in the U.S. Army Nov. 2, 1942. He proudly and bravely served until his honorable discharge Jan. 7, 1948, having achieved the rank of first lieutenant. After basic training he attended officer training school at Massachusetts Institute of Technology and was then appointed to the U.S. military Academy at West Point. He was appointed to the U.S. military Preparatory Unit at Amherst College, where he trained until ordered to the European Campaign Nov. 16, 1944. There he was an infantry unit commander and was awarded th bronze star and the purple heart. Upon return to the United States, Charlie was commended by Col. Lloyd H. Watnee, who wrote, "It has been brought to my attention that you have not only performed the usual duties incumbent upon an organizational commander, but you have gone out of your way to make the personal problems of the men in your command your problems. This leadership in the highest essence and worthy of emulation by all of your brother officers." Charlie served the last one and a half years of his military career with the 94th Quartermaster Battalion, Ladd Field, Alaska. This was probably his most important assignment in that it was while on duty in Alaska Charlie met a young Red Cross worker, Elizabeth Anne Stafford, from Kernersville, whom he married Oct. 5, 1946. After the war, Charlie and Liddy settled in South Wayne and later Warren, Ill., where they started their family and helped operate the family business, an International Harvester dealership. In 1956, soon after the death of his father, Charlie moved the family to Plaster City, Calif., where he worked for the United States Gypsum Co. mining operation. In 1959, it became necessary for Liddy to be near her family so together with three young children they moved to Kernersville where their home has remained since. Charlie was employed for a number of years with Burlington Industries. He then began his career in the investment banking with the brokerage firm of McDaniel Lewis & Co. in Greensboro. Under the tutelage of Mr. Lewis, he became a skilled and accomplished broker and through the years had established himself as a trusted adviser to his many clients. Most recently, he was associated with Cape Securities of Jacksonville. The one binding cord common throughout the many aspects and venues of his life was Charlie's great love of the outdoors. Everywhere he went he marveled at the natural beauty and bounty of his surroundings. He enjoyed golf, tennis and skiing and was an avid gardener who for many years, provided family, friends and neighbors their first taste of sweet corn of the season. Most of all, he was an avid hunter in the truest and purest sense. Pheasants and ducks were plentiful in the Midwest as he was growing up but his most pleasant and rewarding hours were spent roaming the fields, woods and thickets of North Carolina in pursuit of quail. A day afield with his dogs, his buddies, his son and grandsons was always celebrated and deemed a success whether any birds were found or not. Over the last several years, Charlie's ambition has been to selectively breed, raise and train championship quality English Setters. With the help of associates Angie Hale and David Whitaker, he became extremely successful. Two of his dogs, Ellen and Priscilla, have competed in, most nearly won and possibly may still win, the National Field Trial Championship held annually at Ames Plantation in Tennessee. Charlie will long be remembered for his love and loyalty to family, friends and the country by his son, Charles C. Collicutt Jr. and wife, Deborah Gantt Collicutt of Chapel Hill; his daughter, Beverly Collicutt Foster and husband, Gary Foster of Minneapolis, Minn.; four grandsons, Charles Caryl Collicutt, III, Andrew Max Collicutt, Benjamin Stafford Foster and Thomas William Foster; his sister, Betty Collicutt Hanover and husband, Ross Hanover and their children and grandchildren; his sister-in-law, Dr. Eleanor Stafford of Chattanooga, Tenn; his cousin, Sallie Greenfield of Kernersville and many wonderful cousins and devoted friends. Charlie donated his body to the Bowman Gray School of Medicine. A memorial service will be held at Main Street United Methodist Church at 2 p.m. Sunday, Dec. 17. The family will receive friends after the church service. Visitation will be from 7 to 9 p.m. Friday at the home. In lieu of flowers, memorials may be made to Main Street United Methodist Church, 306 S. Main St., Kernersville, NC 27258 or to Hospice of Winston-Salem/Forsyth County, 1100-C S.
