LYNDONVILLE – Reverend Charles O. Boseck passed away on Monday, December 9th, 2024 at the age of 89. He was the son of Carl and Viola (Werner) Boseck and was predeceased by his dear wife Sylvia in 2004, and his sisters Edna Bettcher and Dorothy Phillips. Charles is survived by his sister Norma Jean Hulley and his children Lori (Stephen), James (Rebecca), Philip (Alison) and Stacy Boseck. He was a wonderful Grampy to his grandchildren Benjamin (Emily) Boseck, Matthew Boseck (Olivia Cronmiller), Tyler (Andrew) Marlin and Andrew Boseck. New blessings in this past year were the births of his great-grandchildren Charlotte Sue Boseck and Emerson Scott Marlin. He is also survived by his nieces and nephews.

Charles grew up in Lakeview NY where he wrote in an autobiography assignment in 9th grade that he wanted his lifelong occupation to be farming and that he loved Sunday School and his church. With those goals as his focus he went on to graduate from the Buffalo Bible Institute, where he met Sylvia, and to be ordained as a Minister of Christ at the Lakeview Congregational Church. He went on to pastor churches in Raymond Hill, Sandhill, Lyndonville, Middleport, Hunts Corner and Lakeview. He preached the Word of God faithfully while officiating at many weddings, baptisms and funerals. At the same time he fulfilled his dream of being a farmer by establishing a dairy farm in Akron and then working for many years at MY-T Acres as he and Sylvia raised their family in Lyndonville, NY. In later years Charles moved back into the house his father built and where he was born on Schultz Road in Lakeview.

Calling hours will take place on Saturday, December 28 from 9:00-10:00 am with funeral following at The Lake View Community Church, 2043 Main St. Lake View NY 14085. The family would like to express sincere thanks to the staff at The Hurlbut Nursing Home who cared compassionately for Charlie over the past 3 years. In lieu of flowers, the family would appreciate a contribution in honor of Charles to Lakeview Community Church or the Buffalo City Mission.
