Charles Guevara-Scott   May 12, 1929 - August 9, 2018  
Charles passed peacefully after a long illness on August 9, 2018. His loving wife of 54 years, Elena, and his sisters, Beatrice and Paya predeceased him. Born in Maria Susana, Argentina, to Dr. Juan Carlos Guevara and Lucy Scott, he studied architecture, but found work as an interpreter with the U.S.I.A. He made his way to Washington, DC., becoming an interpreter for the State Department. He finished his civil servant career as a broadcaster for The Voice of America. Charles loved soccer, and was a founding member of the Little River Soccer Club in Annandale. As a coach for the club, he excelled at spotting talent for his select teams, many of whom went on to receive college scholarships as a result of their combined coaching and playing talents. He will be remembered by those who knew him as a principled, dignified, but tough, talented man, with a beautiful speaking and singing voice and boundless love of animals in general, but dogs most of all. His daughter and son-in-law, Giselle and Domenic Mingione, son and daughter-in-law, Charles and Liz, youngest daughter, Lorraine and son-in-law, Ken Levine survive him, along with his six grandchildren whom he adored. A memorial service will be held August 30 at 1 p.m. at Money and King Funeral Home, 171 West Maple Avenue, Vienna, VA. All who knew him are welcome to attend.
