Vote Charles "Charlie" Busler

Elections Chair Person for the 73rd Precinct. I had the honor of working for Habitat for Humanity on various houses, as well as the Habitat Park in downtown Knoxville. Personally: I married my junior high sweetheart Margaret on August 23, 1969. In February of 2012, she was diagnosed with appendix cancer and on June 12, 2013 lost her battle with cancer. We moved to Knoxville from Newport, TN while I attended the University of Tennessee. Upon graduation, we searched all over Knox County looking for a place to build a home. After a trip up I-75 to Exit 112 at Emory Road, we decided this community is where we wanted to start a family. We had two wonderful daughters, who have blessed us with two great son-in-laws and five amazing grandchildren. They all live in the Powell Community near us. Over the years, Margaret and I were blessed with the ability to travel across the United Stat,es, meet a lot of wonderful people, and see some amazing places. Professionally: I am retired from Sears Contract Sales after 43 years of service. During which time, I was nationally ranked as a top 5 salesman numerous times.

I worked as the director for the Home Show sponsored by the HBA of Knoxville and helped establish the HBA of Sevier County and HBA of Cumberland County. I served as Associate Director of the Tennessee Home Builders Association and was recognized as Associate of the Year. Currently, I serve as Lifetime director of the Home Builders Association.
