Charles Ray “Chuck” Sawyer, 74 of Camden, NC died on Tuesday, July 12, 2016 at Sentara Norfolk General. He was born on September 27, 1941 in Great Bridge, VA to the late Charlie Ray and Elizabeth Woolslayer Sawyer. Chuck was a Supervisor for 42 years at the Norfolk Naval Shipyard and a Deacon at Shiloh Baptist Church. He enjoyed fishing, restoring and tinkering with old cars, helped build his house, along with his son’s houses and his church, so he was known as a jack-of-all-trades. Above all else, he loved his family, especially his grandchildren.
