CHARLES McGRATH Obituary

Published by Philadelphia Inquirer/Philadelphia Daily News on Mar. 4, 2016.
McGRATH


CHARLES E., raised in Narberth PA, and most recently of Manayunk. A chef and an avid fisherman. Born on May 17, 1966 and called to God on February 25, 2016. Beloved son of the late Charles J. and Veronica (nee Cermack) McGrath. Loving brother of Colleen M. (Kevin) Lynam, Edward McGrath, and Stephen P. (Christine) McGrath. Amazing uncle of Matthew, David, Jack, Luke, Ian, Sarah, Emma, and Stephen. Loved by many aunts, uncles, cousins, and friends.
Charlie fought a valiant battle for over 60 days in the ICU. We were all inspired by his fight. He fought with dignity, humor, and honor. Relatives and Friends are invited to his Viewing Sunday, from 7 to 9 P.M., in THE FUNERAL HOME OF JOHN STRETCH, 236 East Eagle Rd., Havertown PA 19083,
and to his Mass of Christian Burial Monday, at 11 A.M., in St. Margaret Church, 204 N. Narberth Ave., Narberth PA 19072. Int. Private. In lieu of flowers, an offering in Charles' name to the Charles McGrath Memorial Fund, c/o Mr. John Hughes, 118 Bentley Ave., Bala Cynwyd PA 19004, would be appreciated.
For all the fisherman, FISH ON, FISH OFF.
