Charles Brock Rewis, 50, passed away unexpectedly on May 18, 2021.

Chuck was born in Atlanta, Georgia on June 18, 1970. He graduated from Sequoyah High School in 1988 and received a Bachelor of Science in Management from the Georgia Institute of Technology in 1992 and a Master of Taxation from Georgia State University in 1994. Chuck was a CPA, specializing in state and local taxation, and was the owner of CBR Enterprises, LLC.

Chuck married Jennifer Redding in 1995 in Atlanta, Georgia. They were happily married for 25 years and have spent the last 17 of those years raising their daughter, Amelia Rewis. Chuck enjoyed spending time with his family and friends, walking on the beach in Florida, but most especially loved doing all things horse show related with Amelia.

Chuck was a wonderful husband, son, brother and friend, but above all else he was a wonderful father. He loved Amelia more than anything and since February 9, 2004, she was his entire world. As he said on her birthday earlier this year “Happy 17th Birthday to the greatest daughter in the world. Thanks for making every day the best day of my life. Love you!!!!!”. Chuck was greatly loved by his family and friends and will be dearly missed.

Chuck is survived by his spouse Jennifer Rewis; daughter Amelia Rewis; mother and father Norma and Donald Rewis; mother-in-law Sandra Redding; sister Donna Rewis; brother and sister-in-law Hank and Laura Rewis; nephews Mathew North, Andrew North and Sawyer Rewis; niece Madison Young and other relatives. Chuck was preceded in death by his father-in-law, Darvin Redding.

Services will be held at 2:00 pm, Friday, May 28, 2021 at Lutheran Church of the Redeemer in McLean, Virginia. As a result of the current COVID-19 restrictions, those planning to attend will need to sign-up at redeemermclean.org. The Service will be followed by a private burial in the Andrew Chapel Cemetery.

  5. Chuck was one of the kindest and warm-hearted people I have ever met. When I just moved to this area ten years ago, I was invited to your home for the Christmas party with the team. Chuck was such a wonderful host. He made this delicious fruit punch and made all of us feel warmly welcomed. I am so grateful that I got to know him. He will be missed. Fish and I are deeply sorry for your loss. You are in our prayers. Please accept our sincere condolences.

  6. Jennifer and Amelia, Our heartfelt condolences to you and the entire family. May God comfort and give you strength to deal with this devastating loss as only He can. We will forever remember Chuck for his jovial manner. We will look back and remember the times we spent with him when he came to pick up Amelia from a play date or sleepover with Eliana. The girls used to love it when Chuck was doing the pickups since that usually meant they would have extra 2 hours together while Bruck and Chuck were downstairs having a beer or two. We will cherish the many interesting discussions we have had with him including those about our world travel adventures and plans. It was very evident to anyone that interacted with Chuck what a great father he was. Eliana would always remember the many times that Chuck drove the girls around to their restaurant and shopping adventures. Hold on to the happy memories and take it a day at time. Believe that although Chuck is not here with you physically, he will always be with you in spirit. Amelia, I’m sure you will continue to make your Dad proud in everything you do, he will be watching and smiling from heaven. Wishing you God’s peace and comfort, Eliana, Sossena and Bruck

  7. Dear Jennifer, It is hard to know what to say after someone has experienced a significant loss. I want to take this opportunity to express my heartfelt condolences after the passing of your husband Chuck. About a year ago, I was invited to your house for a team event and was fortunate to meet your family member but not Chuck at that night. I was always hoping to be able to meet him in person because whenever he was in your stories, you were smiling with great joys. My thoughts are with you and your family.

  8. Jennifer, I’m very sorry to hear of your loss. Please accept my deepest condolences to you and your family.

  9. Jennifer, Amelia, family and friends, It has taken me over 10 days to come to grips with the passing of Chuck and to be able to articulate my feelings over our loss. Over the last decade as my kids have reached high school age and we talk about school, work, inspiration and role models, I tell them that I have been fortunate enough to know two of the smartest financial people in the world. My fraternity brother, Ron Kozlin, an Arthur Anderson professional like Jennifer, turned CFO who is a natural and just stinking smart. When I went to work for EY, I transferred to Atlanta from Tampa in my 3rd year and I met Chuck Rewis (P. S. Our family name is Charles Jennings Evans and no one goes by Charles or Chuck — My dad is Charlie [if you called him Chuck he would smack you], I am C.J. and my son is Chase]), but Chuck was a Chuck and instantly I knew I had met another financial genius and we quickly became friends (i.e. for me I knew if I could hang with Chuck I would have job security for life – 10 years at EY). I tell people the most important thing in business is to not think you are the smartest person in the room, that was easy for me because I knew I was not, but when I was around Ron or Chuck they were, but you would never know it. Chuck was very laid back and jovial and would treat the staff (kids) like younger brothers / sisters, never talking down to them, just trying to mentor and teach them. Chuck and I left EY and ended up at the same consulting firm and spend almost another decade together. We slowed down a little after that, but our great wives did not. Over those 20 plus years we spent a lot of time in Captiva and Naples, having a great time and watching our kids grow. We all love our kids, but Chuck was obsessed with Amelia, more so than any parent I have ever seen, but in a great way. Over the last 5 or so years we talked and texted all the time. He would just randomly send me pictures of Amelia or of Amelia, Chase and Kate from when they were little kids. That is how you know his heart was always in the right spot. I lost my dad 18 months ago and that was tough, but he was old and lived a great life. It is harder to lose one of your best friends at a young age, but I know Chuck got more out of his life than most ever will. Jennifer and Amelia, I am so sorry that Chuck passed away too early, but you know he was the most positive and free spirited person on the planet and he would be upset if the two of you, for that matter all of us, did not continue on a positive path. My family is deeply saddened by the loss of Chuck and we are here for you whenever and however you need our love and support. God always has a plan for his children and we may not like or understand some of those plans, but God clearly needed Chuck in heaven so he is in a better place than we are on earth. It is not fair to his family and friends that he is gone from this earth, but that is what makes us stronger. I will miss my great friend dearly, but I know that I am better for knowing and spending time with him and his family. Love, C.J., Kristen, Chase and Kate
