Charles Jerome Haggans was born in Washington, D.C. on August 10, 1961 to Patricia and Bobby Haggans. On his 64th birthday (August 10, 2025), Charles was gifted a reunion with his mother Patricia Haggans, his father Bobby Haggans Sr., and brothers Bobby Lee  Haggans Jr., and John Mark Haggans.

Charles wore many hats but the one he wore most proud was being a great father, immediately followed by being a die-hard Redskins fan.

He leaves his legacy of love and wisdom to his one and only daughter Tinzania Smith and two grandchildren Luca (his main man) and Niari. He also leaves to cherish his memory Benita Pollard of Bowie, MD, Angelita Bolton (Don) of Hanover, MD, La-Trice Batts (David) of Lexington Park, MD, Lisa Haggans of Washington DC, Denise Haggans of Raleigh,  NC, Cassandra Williamson (Ronald) of Raleigh, NC

With his daughter and God on his side and the strength of the Haggan's blood in his veins, Charles fought courageously and victoriously against colon and lung cancer. In spite of the many challenges he faced, he never let them stop him from being a loving father, grandfather and devoted family man.

Isiah 41:10

So do not fear, for I am with you; do not be dismayed, for I am your God. I will strengthen you and help you; I will uphold you with my righteous right hand".
