Charles “Chuck” Tison and his wife Betty moved to Walnut Grove in 1956, where they raised four children who attended local schools. In 1969, they formed the Ti-Gas Company, an LP Gas sales and service distributor that remained a vital part of the community. Known for kindness and generosity, Chuck was active in local Delta communities, including churches, schools, and other community activities from Charlesburg to Rio Vista. He joined the Rotary Club of Walnut Grove in 1973 and remained an active member until his death. Over 35 years as a resident and local businessman, he embodied Rotary International’s “Service Above Self” through his commitment to the Delta communities.
