A decorated veteran. An educated leader. A celebrated citizen.
A. Charles Wilson, or simply “Chuck” for short, co-founded our company back in 1946 with his brother Ernest. Today, he’s not only our acting Chairman and CEO. He’s the lifeblood of our company. To the man in action, check out the Ernest+ Our Founder section.
Humble beginnings.
A single mother. Two boys. Many words of wisdom.
Minnie Wilson raised her two boys during the Great Depression with one of the greatest credos, “There’s always someone less fortunate than you are.” See how this sense of humility was brought to life by Ernie and his little brother Chuck.
“When you can help someone, that’s the best thing in the world.”

The journey to leadership.
In WWII, Sergeant Charles Wilson was awarded the highest honors a soldier can receive. But he almost didn’t make it back to tell the tale.
