FALL RIVER – Charles R. "Dick" Phifer, age 83, passed away at St. Anne's Hospital on October 4, 2025. Born in Fall River to George Henry and Sarah (Travis) Phifer.

Dick was a truck driver for over 55 years and was well known throughout the area, especially at Alice's Diner in Fall River, where he enjoyed good food and friendly conversation. He was easygoing and fun-loving, always ready to share a laugh or a story from the road. Charles had a knack for making people smile and will be fondly remembered by the many friends and acquaintances he made over the years.

He is survived by his son, Christopher Michael Marcoux (wife Kimberly) of Dighton; his siblings, Foster Phifer, Kathy Cardin, and Dale Carrier; as well as many friends, including Lucy, the owner of Alice's Diner, who always looked out for him. He was predeceased by his siblings George Phifer, Russell Phifer and Joy Reis, who recently passed away last month.

Arrangements are under the direction of the Manuel Rogers Funeral Home 1521 N. Main St. Fall River. To send the family Expressions of Sympathy, please click the Guest Book below. You may also light a candle in honor of Charles.
