Charles was born in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania on December 9, 1942, to the late Elmon B. and Mildred P. (McCoach) Sharpe. On April 6, 1968, he married Patricia A. Bartels in Philadelphia who survives him after 48 years of marriage and resides in Trooper, Pa.

His family meant everything to him. He was a member of Cornerstone Church of Skippack for the past eight years, where he served as a Deacon, usher and member of the Missions Committee, as well as many other areas of ministry. He had a deep passion for serving the LORD and his people, and anyone else who had a need. He was a self-employed home maintenance man who could fix most anything. Recently, he loved working at Bradford Woodworking part-time continuing to learn new skills and applying his life-experience to carpentry. We know Charlie has received a rich welcome in Heaven where many loved ones and dear friends were waiting for him. Mostly, we know that God who has numbered our days has called him home for Christmas and Jesus, His Savior, has said to him, Well done, my good and faithful servant, enter into the joy of your Master. May God be glorified through the life and testimony of Charlie, His faithful servant.
