Charles W. Foulke Obituary

Foulke Charles W., Jr. Age 93, of Cherry Hill, New Jersey, passed away peacefully on October 20th, 2025 surrounded by his loved ones. Born on December 6, 1931, in Camden, New Jersey at the Cooper Hospital, Charles W. Foulke Jr. lived a life full of drive-both behind the wheel and in everything he pursued. After serving his country during the Korean War, he dedicated 58 years to the automobile industry, growing Cherry Hill Dodge and several other dealerships across South Jersey. Through hard work and determination, he built not only successful businesses but lasting relationships throughout the community he loved. He was known for his unwavering work ethic, kindness, loving nature, and cheerful spirit. Charles married Marcia Foulke on July 31, 1955 and together they built a beautiful family rooted in love, laughter, and lasting memories. He was a devoted husband, father, and grandfather whose greatest joy came from spending time with his family. Those who knew Charlie will remember his warm smile, quick wit, and signature sense of humor-he had a story for every occasion and could make anyone laugh. Whether he was sharing tales from his childhood, teasing his grandchildren, or offering words of wisdom, Charles had a way of making life a little brighter. One of his favorite sayings was, "It takes 72 muscles to frown and only 14 to smile." He truly lived by those words, always choosing joy and spreading it wherever he went. He is survived by his son, Charles Foulke, III, daughter-in-law Michele Foulke, grandchildren Adam, McCall, Remi, and Charlie, IV and by his loving companion, Jane Johnson. He was preceded in death by his beloved wife, Marcia Foulke, his daughter, Michele Foulke, and other loved ones who welcomed him home with open arms. Viewing Tuesday evening 5 P.M. to 9 P.M. in The First Presbyterian Church, 10 West Maple Ave., Merchantville, NJ. Funeral Service Wednesday morning 11 A.M. in The First Presbyterian Church. In lieu of flowers, the family requests that donations in his memory be made to Cooper University Health Care c/o The Cooper Foundation, 101 Haddon Avenue, Suite 302, Camden, NJ 08103.
