Charles “Chuck” Daniel, 79 of Petoskey, died March 7, 2019.
Chuck was born on June 9, 1939 in Petoskey, the son of Herbert and Katherine (Mayer) Daniel and graduated from St. Francis High School with the class of 1959.
On June 20, 1959, Chuck married the love of his life and the woman he was going to spend almost 60 years with, the former Joan Zyks and the two made their home in Petoskey. Chuck went to work as a Roofer, most notably with Hunts Roofing. While roofing, he and his brother Carl took their most notable coffee break, on top of the steeple at St. Francis Xavier Catholic Church, one on each side of the cross. He later went to work at Northern Michigan Hospital, now McLaren Northern Michigan, where he worked in the X-Ray Dept for 24 years before formally retiring.
Chuck was the epitome of a hard worker, but he was a true gentle man and was always there to give a lending hand to those in need. He loved tending to his garden and was an avid hunter.
He is survived by his wife, Joan; 4 children, Julie (Ron) Rinock, Jacalyn (Allan) Burke, Peter Daniel, and Patrick (Cara) Daniel; 3 grandchildren, Robbie George, Michelle Burke, and Oliva Rinock; 5 siblings, Maggie Skiver, Thomas (Ruth) Daniels, Mary (Bud) Riley, Edna (Craig) Shaw, and Norman (Emily) Daniel; and by many nieces and nephews.
Chuck was preceded in death by his parents and by a brother, Carl (Raeann) Daniels.
A funeral Mass, celebrating Chuck’s life will be held on Tuesday, March 12th at 10:30am at St. Francis Xavier Catholic Church. The family will receive friends at the church from 9:30am until the time of service.
Arrangements are in the care of the Stone Funeral Home of Petoskey.

Joan Lillian Daniel, 84, of Petoskey, Michigan passed away on June 22, 2024, at McLaren Northern Michigan Hospital. She was born and raised in Chicago, Illinois to Aloysius Zyks and Irene (Nawrocki) Zyks. Joan graduated from Madonna High School and went on to meet the love of her life and future husband, Charles Daniel. They were married on June 20, 1959, at Saint Wenceslaus Church in Chicago, IL. The pair later moved to northern Michigan where they would spend the rest of their lives falling deeper in love with one another and creating a shining example of unconditional devotion for their children and many other children in the community that they helped raise.
Joan was a talented craftswoman who was both an at-home artist, and a hairdresser who boasted of her own hair salon. She was fiercely proud of her Polish heritage and spent many years hosting her extended family from Poland whom she helped break into the fabric of northern Michigan, allowing them to pursue their goal of becoming United States citizens. Joan loved being a mother and she helped raise not only her four children but eleven in total that were community members who had lost their parents. Her and her sister, Lois, were very adventurous people. She was a longtime member of St. Francis Xavier Catholic Church of Petoskey.
She is preceded in death by her parents, Aloysius and Irene Zyks; husband Charles Daniel; and sister Lois Zyks.
She is survived by her daughters Julie (Ron) Rinock of Boyne Falls and Jacalyn (Allan) Burke of Charlevoix; her sons Peter (Jimmy) Daniel of Decatur, Georgia and Patrick (Cara) Daniel of Petoskey; grandchildren Robert George, Olivia Rinock, and Michelle (Nicholas) Rodriguez; and great grandson Theodore Rodriguez.
A graveside service will be held to honor her life officiated by Father Dennis Stillwell on Monday July 1, 2024, at 11:00 AM at St. Francis Xavier cemetery in Petoskey, MI. A luncheon will follow at the Knights of Columbus dining hall.
