Chellini, Miguel "Mike" Angel Jr. (1924-1992)
Two separate portrait photographs of Miguel "Mike" Chellini, Jr. of Venezuela and Woodstock. Miguel “Mike” Angel Chellini, Jr. was born in Caracas, Venezuela, to Miguel Angel Chellini, Sr. and Jaunita De Riera. When he was 16 years old, Mike was sent to America to attend school at Massanutten Academy in Woodstock. In 1943, Mike registered for the WWII draft. He was still a student and “Col. H.J. Benchoff” was listed as his emergency contact. Mike was described as being 63.5 inches tall and 147 pounds. Later that year, Mike enlisted in U.S. Navy in Roanoke. That Christmas, while stationed at the Great Lakes Naval Training Station in Chicago, he came back to Woodstock for a visit. After his Navy service, Mike returned to Woodstock and married Charlotte Marie Funk in August 1946. She was one of many children born to Oliver Milton (1898-1980) and Florence Virginia (Fogle) (1900-1994) Funk. Charlotte was a lifelong Woodstock resident and member of the St. John Bosco Catholic Church there. In 1948, the couple bought a house and 3 acres near Readus, west of Woodstock, for $7,000. During their years together, the Northern Virginia Daily newspaper reported on several of their family’s milestones including a visit from Mike’s relatives from Venezuela, the birth of their son, Michael, and a large 50th wedding anniversary party held at their home for Charlotte’s grandparents. In 1950, a new paint and building specialties store opened next to the A&P store on South Main Street in Woodstock. It was owned by Daniel Burner Jr. but managed by Michael Chellini. In 1953, the family travelled back to Venezuela for a six-month visit with Mike’s parents and other relatives. After their return, the couple sold their home near Readus and bought a home and land on the Shenandoah River southeast of Woodstock. For the next several years, Mike Chellini was mentioned often in the newspaper because of his involvement with the community. In 1959, he taught tennis for the Woodstock Jaycees. Later, he was named “Treasurer” of the local Jaycees organization. He also was active in the Woodstock Little League and in June 1960, he was a Woodstock delegate to the Virginia Republican convention in Roanoke. At some point in the mid-sixties, Mike was hired by the Shenandoah County Public School system to teach Spanish at Central High School. His photograph appears as a faculty member in various Central High School yearbooks between 1966 and 1979. In fact, he was also pictured as the coach of the junior varsity football team in 1969. Mike and Charlotte had two sons, Michael III, and Richardo Anthony Chellini. Unfortunately, Richardo died unexpectedly when he was just 18 years old.
