Charles (Charlie) Shaw, 78, of Campbellsville, KY passed away on Sunday, April 20, 2025 at his home. He was born on July 5, 1946 in Louisville, KY, the son of the late William Q. Shaw and Dorothy Brown Shaw.

On August 1, 1970, Charles married Suellen Coker and together they shared 54 years of love, partnership and devotion. Their bond was the foundation of a life filled with family, faith and community.

Charles professed faith in Christ and was a member of Bethel First Presbyterian Church. He served as an Elder on the Session and his passion was the Building and Grounds Committee. His faith and devotion to God played a central role in his life.

Charles moved to Campbellsville, after high school graduation in 1965 to obtain his degree at Campbellsville College. He joined the Fire Departments shortly after. He was instrumental in creating various programs within the Fire Service, both in the State of Kentucky and throughout the nation. He taught and served many years at the National Fire Academy. Charles found great joy in serving various civic duties as well: the City Council, 4th of July Committee and Toys for Tots. He gave so much of his time and heart to the absolute success of these projects.

After his almost 40 year career with the Kentucky Department of Education, teaching and training emergency service personnel, he retired as the Training Coordinator for Area 14 Kentucky State Fire Rescue Training. He was blessed to have developed that program that was second to none and a model to other states. In that capacity, he made a profound impact on the fire rescue training community, helping to shape the education and preparedness of emergency responders across the region. Through a relentless demand for excellence and attention to detail, he made sure that firefighters could receive high quality training in their communities in order to better serve their communities and save lives.

Charles also served as the Chief of Campbellsville-Taylor County Rescue, where he dedicated 30 years to saving lives and serving his community. He was the leader of many accomplishments including a building project, taking on the county EMS, developing a regional dive team, TRH partnership in the trauma program, regional hazmat and one of the few technical rescue teams in the state. He volunteered with the Campbellsville and Taylor County Fire Departments and was the special events coordinator for the Kentucky Fire Commission, helping organize statewide events to support Kentucky’s fire service and emergency responders. Chief Shaw took the most pride in the development of leaders-always leaning on his motto: “Quality is never an accident. It is the result of intelligent effort.” He led by example and gave people the tools to become leaders and to excel at what they do.

Charles was relentless in his pursuit of excellence and unwavering in his standards. His commitment to the highest level of performance in every aspect of his life earned him deep respect from colleagues and friends. He also coordinated funerals for fallen emergency service members, handling those sacred moments with the utmost care, dignity and respect. His works during those times provided comfort to grieving families and honored the sacrifices of those who served.

Anne Marie Herbert Frank, 94, was born August 7, 1930 and departed this life peacefully on Monday, April 14, 2025. She was born in Columbus, Ohio, the fourth and youngest child of Thomas Chester and Anna Marie Booton Herbert.

Anne graduated from West High School in Columbus (1948), and Ohio State University (1952), where she met her future husband George. Anne and George Emery Frank married on September 21, 1952. The couple and newborn daughter moved from Columbus to West Virginia (1955), then Anne and George made Greensburg their home in 1957. George preceded her in death in 2002.

Anne led an exemplary life of service and was an ardent proponent of ‘giving back’ before it was a thing. In a nutshell: She was a tireless and enthusiastic advocate who dedicated over 45 years of service to the American Red Cross Bloodmobile, heading up countless blood drives for the benefit of patients in need, phoning repeat donors and recruiting new ones, coordinating food and volunteers drive after drive. In addition, Anne served on the Greensburg City Council. Her volunteerism was heralded widely in various proclamations, including from the Red Cross, the Mayor of Greensburg, and the Kentucky State Senate.

Anne was a lifelong member of the Methodist church. Granny Anne loved her church family and was always willing to serve; especially coordinating/preparing meals, serving on committees and making sure the candles were always lit and were burning with the same size flame. She regularly attended meetings of the Homemakers club, and created entries for the county and state fairs. Anne was quite handy with a needle - she enjoyed sewing and knitting to create crafts for family and friends. In addition, she was no stranger to using other tools, from rewiring lamps to building various pieces of furniture and toys.

Anne is also predeceased by two sisters: Mary Beighley and Virginia Gardner.
