He was born March 30, 1949, in Warren, OH to Charles F Foust Sr and Pearl (Eddy) Foust. In his younger years he was a champion barrel racer with his palomino.

He decided to start his own business in 1968 with a $500.00 trencher. He went on to become one of the largest and trusted concrete contractors in Youngstown, OH.

He was married to Margie Moorehead Morris on August 31, 2000, in Vienna, OH by Judge Ronald J. Rice, a lifetime friend. Chuck and Margie were a "couple of gypsies" going between their home in Girard to the farm in Venus, PA. They also made many trips to their camp in Benezette, PA and spent the winter months in their home in Bushnell, FL.
