Decker, 62, passed away Sunday, July 24, 2005, at Harborview Medical Center in Seattle, of multiple brain aneurysms. Born July 9, 1943, to Leo J. and Thelma V. (Bowen) Decker, Charlie grew up in Spokane and graduated in LaMont, Wash. He married Linda J. Piper in Coeur d'Alene on Aug. 30, 1980. Charlie and Linda lived in Anchorage, Alaska, and started their family of six. For 17 years, Charlie owned his own drywall company in Alaska, then resided with his family in Post Falls the next 17 years, and then in Kalispell, Mont., off and on for the last five years. Charlie hung drywall most of his life and considered himself a carpenter of all trades. Most of all, he just loved "sheetrock-in' it." Charlie loved the Lord Jesus Christ and loved to be with his family and extended family of friends. He was preceded in death by his parents, Leo and Thelma Decker, and sister Alice Cunningham. Charlie is survived by his wife of 26 years, Linda Decker; sons Joshua and Leo Decker; daughters Rachel, Rebekah and Toni Decker, and daughter Sarah Prewitt; brother Jim Decker; sister Mary Lee Deerfield; and numerous nieces and nephews. Memorial service for Charlie will be 11 a.m. Aug. 6 at Real Life Ministries, 1866 Cecil Road, Post Falls, with Pastor Bill Putnam officiating. Just as in Charlie's life, home and heart, everyone is welcome. Additional Comments: Coeur d'Alene, Kootenai County, Idaho Volunteer submission - No relation to the deceased.
