Obituary
Charles Thomas (Chuck) Bunker, aged 69, passed away unexpectedly on May 24, 2026, due to cardiac arrest. Born on October 10, 1956, in Fitchburg, Massachusetts, Chuck was the beloved only child of Lillian K. (Campbell) and Forrest Bunker, both of whom predeceased him. He spent his formative years in Somerville, Massachusetts, and later resided at Cambridge Rehab and Nursing in Cambridge, Massachusetts, where he was cherished for his vibrant personality, warmth, and joy.
Chuck was passionate about music, often participating in musical events, karaoke, social gatherings, and bingo. An avid reader, he also loved working on his comic books, having created a series known as ‘Geriatric Man.’ His love for languages and engaging conversations made him a memorable presence in the lives of many.
He is survived by several cousins in the U.S. and abroad, but will be especially missed by his cousin Patty (Campbell) and her husband Rick Walsh from Stoneham, Massachusetts, with whom he shared a close bond throughout his life.
There will be a Prayer Service for Charles in the Holy Cross Cemetery, 175 Broadway Malden, Friday at 11:00am.
Relatives and friends invited to meet at the Cemetery.
