Charles Heinberg

Charles (Chick, Poppa) Heinberg of Stoughton, MA, died on December 21, 2020 under the extraordinary care of CareOne Senior Care in Newton, MA. He was 75 years old.

Chick was born in New York on March 30, 1945, the son of the late Freda and Howard Heinberg, brother of Gary and the late Neil Heinberg, and brother in-law of Robert Schecter. He was proud of being a graduate of Valley Stream North High School of New York, Cornell University of New York, and the University of Detroit School of Dentistry in Michigan. He began his career as an associate dentist with Dr. Paul Sowsy in East Bridgewater MA, and opened his private general practice in 1975.

He was the loving husband of his wife, Jeri (Schecter) of 53 years, devoted father to Ami and her husband Matthew Cecil, and Poppa to his grandsons, Samuel Oliver Cecil and Maxwell David Cecil. He was an avid gardener and landscaper, and derived great pleasure as a property developer and manager. He was an aficionado of the Dunkin’ Donuts at Cobb Corner in Canton, where he met ‘the guys’ daily.  He took special joy in taking his two grandsons for Sunday breakfasts, and sharing dinner and gatherings with friends.
