Charles Rogers Wiseman was born on July 23, 1935, to Blanch and Ed Wiseman. He spent his younger years on the family ranch and went to a rural two-room school. He then transferred to public schools in San Antonio to prepare him for college. He graduated from Thomas Jefferson High School in 1953. That fall, he entered Texas A&M University, where he received a degree in Veterinary Medicine in 1959. Prior to graduating, he married Patricia Padgett. They have been married for 60 years and had two children, Charles Vincent and Polly. Charlie is survived by his beloved wife, Patricia and their son, Charles Vincent, and his three children, Savannah, Marsy, and James Rogers, and by his granddaughter, Amanda Taylor "AT", and son-in-law, David Bruce Franklin. He is also survived by his sister, Mary Ann "Tootie" Simpson, and his nieces and nephews. He was preceded in death by his daughter Polly Wiseman Franklin and his parents Ed and Blanche Wiseman.

Charlie opened the Wiseman Animal Hospital in San Antonio in September 1959, where he practiced veterinary medicine for 37 years. He was an avid skeet shooter and hunter and travelled all over the world with his wife Pat. Charlie was President of the Bexar County Veterinary Medical Society, President of the San Antonio Gun Club, President of San Antonio A&M Club and President of the 12th Man Foundation at Texas A&M. In 2003, he was inducted into the A&M Letterman's Association Hall of Honor and in 2007 he was named an Outstanding Alumnus of the College of Veterinary Medicine. He was a devoted Aggie, and in 2014 he received A&M's highest distinction among former students when he was honored as a Distinguished Alumnus by the Association of Former Students. He endowed an athletic scholarship and later a scholarship to the College of Veterinary Medicine at A&M in memory of his mother, Blanche, and also endowed a Chair in Cardiology.
