Byron Charles Rivard

Chuck was born in Detroit and grew up in Eastpointe. After high school, Chuck honorably served in the United States Army and was stationed in Germany. When he returned home, Chuck worked in his father’s business where he learned all about cars. He eventually went on to own his own auto parts store and became highly respected by the people in the neighborhood. Chuck was married to the love of his life, Kathleen for 51 years. He taught their son Scott everything he needed to know about handiwork and mechanics as well. Chuck enjoyed spending time with his family by traveling. He would load up the family and took them to National Parks all over the country. In his leisure time, Chuck loved tending to his garden where he planted an assortment of vegetables. He was also an animal lover, as they seemed to be drawn to him. Chuck will forever be remembered simply as a blue-collar man who just told it like it was. He will forever be missed by his loving friends and family.

Chuck was the beloved husband of Kathleen. Loving father of Scott. Dear brother of Rozalind Bussineau and Ross (Fran) Rivard.
