Charles enjoyed hunting, fishing (especially with his grandsons), and taking trips to Colorado with family and friends. He went on a trip to the Holy Land, and he went on several mission trips. He enjoyed ministering, and his greatest joy was spending time with his family, kidding around with his nieces and nephews and just having fun.

Charles was preceded in death by his father, Ralph Asberry.
