Charles J. McFall, D.D.S., 84

APRIL 8, 1918 – MARCH 5, 2003

NAPLES, FLA. – “You Smile and the Angels Sing.”

Charles McFall, 84, took up residence in God’s Kingdom on Wednesday, March 5, 2003, after an extended illness. He had been residing in Naples, Florida, since May of 2001, having moved from Bloomington to Fort Wayne in 1992.

Charles was born April 8, 1918, in Southern Indiana, the son of John and Iva McFall. Having survived rheumatic fever as a teenager, he graduated from DePauw University, with a major in chemistry and minor in math, and the Indiana University School of Dentistry. He served in the Navy in World War II at which time he met and married his wife, Verna McKinney. Following the war, Charles and Verna moved to Bloomington where he established his dental practice. He practiced dentistry for 20 years here, retiring in 1970, after which he began his second career with the Monroe County Health Department.

Charles and Verna had three children: Melvin (Elizabeth) of Houston, Texas, Patricia Beal (Michael) of Naples, Florida, and Steve, who passed away in 1969. He is also survived by his sister, Mildred Stephenson; his by (sic) nephews, David Stephenson, John Stephenson, Robert Stephenson; and his niece, Mary Stephenson Tarr.

Verna passed away in 1992 after a long battle with Lupus. While she was ill, Charles tended her constantly, installing several devices of his own invention around the house to make her care easier for both of them.

Charles was an avid boater in his younger days, often sailing with his brother, Rev. Merrill B. McFall. He later became an accomplished bowler and golfer. He was very proud of his two holes-in-one. He enjoyed playing the clarinet and was also possibly the best whistler in the work, although that was never documented.

Those who knew him will always remember his dry wit, his meticulous precision in his dental practice, his gentle and easy-going nature, how proud he was of his family and the kindness he showed everyone around him.

A memorial service will be announced at a future date, at which time Mel and Patty hope to hear great stories from all his friends.

“Even youths grow tired and weary, and young men stumble and fall; but those who hope in the LORD will renew their strength. They will soar on wings like eagles; they will run and not grow weary; they will walk and not be faint.” Isaiah 40:30, 31.
