Charles L Sorg Obituary - Visitation & Funeral Information

Sorg, Charles L., of Brown Mills (formerly of Egg Harbor City), passed away at home on August 13th. Born May 26, 1936, son of the late Albert H. and Emma Sorg. Cholly, as he was affectionately known, served our country honorably in the United States Coast Guard from 1954-1958. After deciding not to stay in the family clothing business, Cholly put himself through college graduating from Rutgers University with a degree in Engineering and a career as a Waterworks Operating Engineer, where his expertise was used in many municipalities throughout New Jersey, when he finally retired completely at age 72. Cholly was quite the outdoorsman, racing sports cars in the early 50's, boating preferring wind power to that of an engine, fishing freshwater was his passion. He kept many logs of his catches, weather, time of day and who he was with, rode many miles on his many motorcycles, always preferring the Moto Guzzi over others. He loved cars, owning over 150 automobiles over his lifetimes. He was also musically talented as he could play most any instrument. Cholly had a great sense of humor and was always the life of a party. His loved ones miss him dearly and wish they could have had more good days with him here on earth. Cholly leaves behind with fond memories, his children, Charles, William, and Stephanie; niece and nephew, Gretchen and Butchie; his grandchildren, Michaellea, Matthew, Maddison, Andrew, Lauren, and great granddaughter, Emmie, whom he loved all in his own way. To his many friends past and present, he spoke of you all often ad enjoyed their time and conversations. Cholly was a religious man, always finding time to go to church. May he enter into eternal life, leave a light on for the rest of us.
