Remembering Charles Head


Recently the people of the Cherokee Nation lost a true champion in Secretary of State Charles Head. Charles was my friend and an integral part of the leadership team at the Cherokee Nation.

He was dedicated to his tribe, his country and his family. A military veteran of the Vietnam War, Charles was dedicated to defending the Cherokee Nation’s tribal sovereignty and he served his people with pride and unwavering commitment. Charles Head was passionate about the issues important to Cherokee people – education, health care, housing and public safety. As Secretary of State, he was vital in spearheading programs in these areas and driving them forward.

I will always value his leadership and dedication to the Cherokee way. Charles was a man any Cherokee citizen could look to with respect and admiration. He will be deeply missed.
