More detail on this person: Charles Priestley Inman Jr. PRINCETON - On March 20, 2014, the
LORD called Charles Priestley Inman Jr., 67, known as "CP", "Chuck" and "Guppy," home. Chuck
perished in a vehicle accident close to his home in Princeton, NJ. The accident also severely
injured his wife, Pamela B. Inman, who is still recovering from her injuries. Chuck was born on Aug.
26, 1946, in Richmond, VA, to Charles P. Inman Sr. and Evelyn Rose Inman. He was a highly
decorated US Army veteran and served with distinction from 1967 - 1968 in Vietnam, where he flew
OH-13 helicopters as a CWO in the B Troop 1/9 Cavalry under the call sign White 18. He was shot
down in February 1968 and spent the next two years recovering in Walter Reed. He earned a Silver
Star, a Purple Heart, an Air Medal, and numerous other medals for his service. After his discharge
from the Army, Chuck married the love of his life, Pamela Elaine Buss, on Aug. 29, 1970. They were
married for almost 44 years at the time of his death. Chuck earned his undergraduate degree in
accounting from the University of Richmond and a master's from the University of Texas in Austin,
and went on to become a CPA. Chuck and Pam's son, Charles P. Inman, III (Charlie), was born March
3, 1975. Chuck taught accounting at the Universities of Texas at Houston, Miami, and Richmond, as
well as Averett College. In addition, he worked for Ernst and Whinney, founded his own accounting
practice, worked as the operations and finance vice president for a national paint manufacturing
company, and later returned to his hometown of Richmond to run his family's business (Charles E.
Brauer Co.) in Richmond in 1985. Most recently, he founded South River Personnel & Management
Services that serves MoMA in New York City and is the founder of Battle Against Hunger, a charity
that raises funds for hunger relief among the neediest citizens of some New Jersey and
Pennsylvania's communities, in accordance with Matthew 25:40. Most importantly, Chuck loved life and
the LORD and all who knew him should have comfort knowing that he is with Jesus face-to-face. He
lived life to its fullest, and tried to love his neighbor as himself. Chuck is survived by his wife,
Pam, and their son, Charlie, along with his wife Katie, daughter Sydney (5) and son Andrew (2). He
is also survived by his sister, Carol Inman Novak of Rockville, MD. Chuck will be interred at
