Anthony "Chuck" Abdullah

Anthony Abdullah, affectionately known as "Chuck," was born on April 14, 1966, to the late Kareem Abdullah of Folkston, GA, and Clarissa Little of Winston-Salem, NC. He was raised by his beloved mother, Agnes Abdullah, of Kingsland, GA. Chuck earned his nickname from his childhood friend, Charles Dasher, and it stuck with him throughout his life, being used by friends and family alike.
Chuck was educated in the public school system of Charlton County and received his GED in 1986. Known for his strong work ethic, he worked for several companies, including Stevenson Enterprise and BHA in Folkston, GA, and Kaman Enterprises in Jacksonville, FL. He ultimately spent his last years as a shift leader at IEM Power Systems in Jacksonville, FL, where he was well-loved and respected by all his coworkers.
Chuck enjoyed a variety of hobbies, including fishing and cooking, but his greatest joy was spending time with his friends and family. He was an avid Pittsburgh Steelers fan, never missing a game and always eager to discuss his team's latest performance.
Chuck passed away unexpectedly on January 4, 2025. He was preceded in death by his parents, Kareem Abdullah and Clarissa Little; his grandparents, Janie and Matthew Holbrook of North Carolina; his aunt, Lula Mitchell of Kingsland, GA; and his grandmother, Ethel Mae Boyd of Folkston, GA.

He is also survived by nine grandchildren.
